It&#8217;s been a crazy, exciting, journey, and one that won&#8217;t stop any time soon.</p>\n<p>At ten years, it&#8217;s fun to reflect on our beginnings. We launched WordPress on 27th May 2003, but that wasn&#8217;t inception. Go back far enough, and you can <a href=\"http://zengun.org/weblog/archives/2001/06/post1958/\">read a post by Michel Valdrighi</a> who, frustrated by the self-hosted blogging platforms available, decided to write his own software; &#8220;b2, a PHP+MySQL alternative to Blogger and GreyMatter.&#8221; b2 was easy to install, easy to configure, and easy for developers to extend. Of all the blogging platforms out there, <a href=\"http://cafelog.com\">b2</a> was the right one for me: I could write my content and get it on the web quickly and painlessly.</p>\n<p>Sometimes, however, life gets in the way. In 2002, Michel stopped maintaining b2. Over time, security flaws became apparent and updates were needed and, while the b2 community could write patches and fixes, no one was driving the software forward. We were lucky that Michel decided to release b2 under the GPL; the software may have been abandoned, but we weren&#8217;t without options. A fork was always a possibility. That was where it stood in January 2003, when <a href=\"http://ma.tt/2003/01/the-blogging-software-dilemma/\">I posted about forking b2</a> and <a href=\"http://ma.tt/2003/01/the-blogging-software-dilemma/#comment-445\">Mike responded</a>. The rest, as they say, is history.</p>\n<p>From the very beginning to the present day, I&#8217;ve been impressed by the thought, care, and dedication that WordPress&#8217; developers have demonstrated. Each one has brought his or her unique perspective, each individual has strengthened the whole. It would be impossible to thank each of them here individually, but their achievements speak for themselves. In WordPress 1.2 the new Plugin API made it easy for developers to extend WordPress. In the same release <code>gettext()</code> internationalization opened WordPress up to every language (hat tip: <a href=\"http://ryan.boren.me/\">Ryan Boren</a> for spending hours wrapping strings with gettext). In WordPress 1.5 our Theme system made it possible for WordPress users to quickly change their site&#8217;s design: there was huge resistance to the theme system from the wider community at the time, but can you imagine WordPress without it? Versions 2.7, 2.8, and 2.9 saw improvements that let users install and update their plugins and themes with one click. WordPress has seen a redesign by <a href=\"http://v2.happycog.com/create/wordpress/?p=design/wordpress/\">happycog</a> (2.3) and gone under extensive user testing and redesign (<a href=\"http://www.slideshare.net/edanzico/riding-the-crazyhorse-future-generation-wordpress-presentation\">Crazyhorse</a>, Liz Danzico and Jen Mylo, WordPress 2.5). In WordPress 3.0 we merged WordPress MU with WordPress &#8212; a huge job but 100% worth it. And in WordPress 3.5 we revamped the media uploader to make it easier for people to get their images, video, and media online.</p>\n<p>In sticking to our commitment to user experience, we&#8217;ve done a few things that have made us unpopular. The <a href=\"http://tech.gaeatimes.com/index.php/archive/wordpress-wysiwyg-editor-is-a-disaster/\">WYSIWYG editor</a> was hated by many, especially those who felt that if you have a blog you should know HTML. Some developers hated that we stuck with our code, refusing to rewrite, but it&#8217;s always been the users that matter: better a developer lose sleep than a site break for a user. Our code isn&#8217;t always beautiful, after all, when WordPress was created most of us were still learning PHP, but we try to make a flawless experience for users.</p>\n<p>It&#8217;s not all about developers. WordPress&#8217; strength lies in the diversity of its community. From the start, we wanted a low barrier to entry and we came up with our &#8220;famous 5 minute install&#8221;. This brought on board users from varied technical background: people who didn&#8217;t write code wanted to help make WordPress better. If you couldn&#8217;t write code, it didn&#8217;t matter: you could answer a question in the support forums, write documentation, translate WordPress, or build your friends and family a WordPress website. There is <a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/\">space in the community</a> for anyone with a passion for WordPress.</p>\n<p>It&#8217;s been wonderful to see all of the people who have used WordPress to build their home on the internet. Early on <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/news/2004/04/switchers/\">we got excited</a> by <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/news/2004/04/more-switchers/\">switchers</a>. From a community of tinkerers we grew, as writers such as <a href=\"http://ma.tt/2004/05/om-malik/\">Om Malik</a>, <a href=\"http://dougal.gunters.org/blog/2004/05/15/mark-pilgrim-switches/\">Mark Pilgrim</a>, and <a href=\"http://ma.tt/2004/07/mollycom-switches/\">Molly Holzschlag</a> made the switch to WordPress. Our commitment to effortless publishing quickly paid off and has continued to do so: <strong>the WordPress 1.2 release saw 822 downloads per day, our latest release, WordPress 3.5, has seen 145,692 per day.</strong></p>\n<p>I&#8217;m continually amazed by what people have built with WordPress. I&#8217;ve seen <a href=\"http://justintimberlake.com/main/\">musicians</a> and <a href=\"http://ma.tt/2013/01/neil-leifer-on-wordpress/\">photographers</a>, magazines such as <a href=\"http://life.time.com/\">Life</a>, <a href=\"http://boingboing.net/\">BoingBoing</a>, and the <a href=\"http://observer.com/\">New York Observer</a>, <a href=\"http://www.compliance.gov/\">government websites</a>, a <a href=\"http://josephscott.org/archives/2011/05/pressfs-a-wordpress-filesystem/\">filesystem</a>, <a href=\"http://www.ymcanyc.org/association/pages/y-mvp\"> mobile applications</a>, and even <a href=\"http://www.viper007bond.com/2010/06/12/so-apparently-wordpress-can-guide-missiles/\">seen WordPress guide missiles</a>.</p>\n<p>As the web evolves, WordPress evolves. Factors outside of our control will always influence WordPress&#8217; development: today it&#8217;s mobile devices and retina display, tomorrow it could be Google Glass or technology not yet conceived. A lot can happen in ten years! As technology changes and advances, WordPress has to change with it while remaining true to its core values: making publishing online easy for everyone. How we rise to these challenges will be what defines WordPress over the coming ten years.</p>\n<p><strong>To celebrate ten years of WordPress, we&#8217;re working on a book about our history.</strong> We&#8217;re carrying out interviews with people who have involved with the community from the very beginning, those who are still around, and those who have left. It&#8217;s a huge project, but we wanted to have something to share with you on the 10th anniversary. To learn about the very early days of WordPress, just after Mike and I forked b2 <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/about/history/\">you can download Chapter 3 right here</a>. We&#8217;ll be releasing the rest of the book serially, so watch out as the story of the last ten years emerges.</p>\n<p>In the meantime, <a href=\"http://ma.tt/2013/05/dear-wordpress/\"> I penned my own letter to WordPress</a> and other community members have been sharing their thoughts:</p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http://zed1.com/journalized/archives/2013/01/25/wordpress-a-10-year-journey/\">Mike Little on our Ten Year Journey</a>.</li>\n<li>Core contributor Helen Hou-Sandi <a href=\"http://helen.wordpress.com/2013/05/27/happy-10th-wordpress-and-thanks-from-my-little-family/\">wishes WordPress happy birthday</a>.</li>\n<li>Peter Westwood on <a href=\"http://blog.ftwr.co.uk/archives/2013/05/27/a-decade-gone-more-to-come/\">a decade gone</a>.</li>\n<li>Support rep Mika Epstein <a href=\"http://ipstenu.org/2013/you-me-and-wp/\">on her WordPress journey</a>.</li>\n<li>Dougal Campbell <a href=\"http://dougal.gunters.org/blog/2013/05/27/instagram-my-wife-suzecampbell-and-i-celebrating-the-wordpress-10th-anniversary-with-bbq-in-our-wordpress-shirts-wp10/\">celebrating with his wife, Suze</a>.</li>\n<li>Otto on <a href=\"http://ottodestruct.com/blog/2013/how-wp-affected-me/\">how WordPress affected him</a>.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>You can see how WordPress&#8217; 10th Anniversary was celebrated all over the world <a href=\"http://wp10.wordpress.net/\">by visiting the wp10 website</a>, according to Meetup we had 4,999 celebrators.</p>\n<p>To finish, I just want to say thank you to everyone: to the developers who write the code, to the designers who make WordPress sing, to the worldwide community translating WordPress into so many languages, to volunteers who answer support questions, to those who make WordPress accessible, to the systems team and the plugin and theme reviewers, to documentation writers, event organisers, evangelists, detractors, supporters and friends. Thanks to the jazzers whose music inspired us and whose names are at the heart of WordPress.

With hundreds of parties going on today, it&#8217;s more visible than ever just how popular WordPress has become.</p>\n<p><strong>Thank you to everyone who has ever contributed to this project: your labors of love made this day possible.</strong></p>\n<p>But today isn&#8217;t just about reflecting on how we got this far (though I thought <a href=\"http://ma.tt/2013/05/dear-wordpress/\">Matt&#8217;s reflection on the first ten years</a> was lovely). We are constantly moving forward. As each release cycle begins and ends (3.6 will be here soon, promise!), we always see an ebb and flow in the contributor pool. Part of ensuring the longevity of WordPress means mentoring new contributors, continually bringing new talent and fresh points of view to our family table.</p>\n<p>I am beyond pleased to announce that this summer we will be mentoring 8 interns, most of them new contributors, through <a href=\"http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/homepage/google/gsoc2013\">Google Summer of Code</a> and the <a href=\"https://live.gnome.org/OutreachProgramForWomen/2013/JuneSeptember\">Gnome Outreach Program for Women</a>. Current contributors, who already volunteer their time working on WordPress, will provide the guidance and oversight for a variety of exciting projects  this summer. Here are the people/projects involved in the summer internships:</p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><strong>Ryan McCue</strong>, </strong>from Australia, working on a JSON-based REST API. Mentors will be Bryan Petty and Eric Mann, with a reviewer assist from Andrew Norcross.</li>\n<li><strong>Kat Hagan</strong>, from the United States, working on a Post by Email plugin to replace the core function. Mentors will be Justin Shreve and George Stephanis, with an assist from Peter Westwood.</li>\n<li><strong>Siobhan Bamber</strong>, from Wales, working on a support (forums, training, documentation) internship. Mentors will be Mika Epstein and Hanni Ross.</li>\n<li><strong>Frederick Ding</strong>, from the United States, working on improving portability. Mentors will be Andrew Nacin and Mike Schroder.</li>\n<li><strong>Sayak Sakar</strong>, from India, working on porting WordPress for WebOS to Firefox OS. Mentor will be Eric Johnson.</li>\n<li><strong>Alex Höreth</strong>, from Germany, working on  adding WordPress native revisions to the theme and plugin code editors. Mentors will be Dominik Schilling and Aaron Campbell, with a reviewer assist from Daniel Bachhuber.</li>\n<li><strong>Mert Yazicioglu</strong>, from Turkey, working on ways to improve our community profiles at profiles.wordpress.org. Mentors will be Scott Reilly and Boone Gorges.</li>\n<li><strong>Daniele Maio</strong>, from Italy, working on a native WordPress app for Blackberry 10. Mentor will be Danilo Ercoli.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Did you notice that our summer cohort is as international as the #wp10 parties going on today? I can only think that this is a good sign.</p>\n<p>It&#8217;s always a difficult process to decide which projects to mentor through these programs. There are always more applicants with interesting ideas with whom we&#8217;d like to work than there are opportunities. Luckily, WordPress is a free/libre open source software project, and anyone can begin contributing at any time. Is this the year for you? We&#8217;d love for you to join us as we work toward #wp20. <img src=\'http://wordpress.org/news/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif\' alt=\';)\' class=\'wp-smiley\' /> </p>\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:36:\"http://wellformedweb.org/CommentAPI/\";a:1:{s:10:\"commentRss\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:62:\"http://wordpress.org/news/2013/05/the-next-10-starts-now/feed/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:38:\"http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/slash/\";a:1:{s:8:\"comments\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:1:\"0\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:3;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:42:\"\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n				\n\n		\n		\n				\n			\n		\n		\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:5:{s:0:\"\";a:7:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:20:\"WordPress 3.6 Beta 3\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:55:\"http://wordpress.org/news/2013/05/wordpress-3-6-beta-3/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:8:\"comments\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:64:\"http://wordpress.org/news/2013/05/wordpress-3-6-beta-3/#comments\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Sat, 11 May 2013 03:44:41 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:8:\"category\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:11:\"Development\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:33:\"http://wordpress.org/news/?p=2584\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:1:{s:0:\"\";a:1:{s:11:\"isPermaLink\";s:5:\"false\";}}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:374:\"WordPress 3.6 Beta 3 is now available!

This year, we&#8217;re happy to be participating as a mentoring organization with two respected summer internship programs: <a href=\"http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/homepage/google/gsoc2013\">Google Summer of Code (GSoC)</a> and the Gnome Outreach Program for Women.</p>\n<h3>Google Summer of Code</h3>\n<p>GSoC is a summer internship program funded by Google specifically for college/university student developers to work on open source coding projects. We have participated in the Google Summer of Code program in the past, and have enjoyed the opportunity to work with students in this way. Some of our best core developers were GSoC students once upon a time!</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://codex.wordpress.org/GSoC2013#Mentors\">Our mentors</a>, almost 30 talented developers with experience developing WordPress, will provide students with guidance and feedback over the course of the summer, culminating in the release of finished projects at the end of the program if all goes well.</p>\n<p>Students who successfully complete the program earn $5,000 for their summer efforts. Interested, or know a college student (newly accepted to college counts, too) who should be? All the information you need about our participation in the program, projects, mentors, and the application process is available on the <a href=\"http://codex.wordpress.org/GSoC2013\">GSoC 2013 page in the Codex</a>.</p>\n<h3>Gnome Outreach Program for Women</h3>\n<p>It&#8217;s not news that women form a low percentage of contributors in most open source projects, and WordPress is no different. We have great women in the contributor community, including some in fairly visible roles, but we still have a lot of work to do to get a representative gender balance on par with our user base.</p>\n<p>The Gnome Outreach Program for Women aims to provide opportunities for women to participate in open source projects, and offers a similar stipend, but there are three key differences between GSoC and Gnome aside from the gender requirement for Gnome.</p>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 13px;line-height: 19px\">The Gnome program allows intern projects in many areas of contribution, not just code. In other words, interns can propose projects like documentation, community management, design, translation, or pretty much any area in which we have people contributing (including code).</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 13px;line-height: 19px\">The Gnome Outreach Program for Women doesn&#8217;t require interns to be college students, though students are definitely welcome to participate. This means that women in all stages of life and career can take the opportunity to try working with open source communities for the summer.</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 13px;line-height: 19px\">We have to help raise the money to pay the interns. Google funds GSoC on its own, and we only have to provide our mentors&#8217; time. Gnome doesn&#8217;t have the same funding, so we need to pitch in to raise the money to cover our interns. If your company is interested in helping with this, please check out the program&#8217;s </span><a style=\"font-size: 13px;line-height: 19px\" href=\"https://live.gnome.org/OutreachProgramForWomen#For_Organizations_and_Companies\">sponsorship information</a><span style=\"font-size: 13px;line-height: 19px\"> and follow the contact instructions to get involved. You can earmark donations to support WordPress interns, or to support the program in general. (Pick us, pick us! <img src=\'http://wordpress.org/news/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif\' alt=\':)\' class=\'wp-smiley\' />  )</span></li>\n</ol>\n<p>The summer installment of the Gnome Outreach Program for Women follows the same schedule and general application format as GSoC, though there are more potential projects since it covers more areas of contribution. Women college students interested in doing a coding project are encouraged to apply for both programs to increase the odds of acceptance. All the information you need about our participation in the program, projects, mentors, and the application process is available on the <a href=\"http://codex.wordpress.org/Gnome_Summer_Program_for_Women\">Gnome Outreach Program for Women page in the Codex</a>.</p>\n<p>The application period just started, and it lasts another week (May 1 for Gnome, May 3 for GSoC), so if you think you qualify and are interested in getting involved, check out the information pages, get in touch, and apply… Good luck!</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://codex.wordpress.org/GSoC2013\">Google Summer of Code 2013 Information</a><br />\n<a href=\"http://codex.wordpress.org/Gnome_Summer_Program_for_Women\">Gnome Summer Outreach Program for Women 2013 Information</a></p>\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:36:\"http://wellformedweb.org/CommentAPI/\";a:1:{s:10:\"commentRss\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:81:\"http://wordpress.org/news/2013/04/summer-mentorship-programs-gsoc-and-gnome/feed/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:38:\"http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/slash/\";a:1:{s:8:\"comments\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:1:\"0\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:6;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:51:\"\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n				\n		\n		\n		\n\n		\n		\n				\n			\n		\n		\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:5:{s:0:\"\";a:7:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"WordPress 10th Anniversary Tees\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:66:\"http://wordpress.org/news/2013/04/wordpress-10th-anniversary-tees/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:8:\"comments\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:75:\"http://wordpress.org/news/2013/04/wordpress-10th-anniversary-tees/#comments\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Tue, 23 Apr 2013 16:40:31 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:8:\"category\";a:4:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:6:\"Events\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:1;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:5:\"Store\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:2;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:4:\"swag\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}i:3;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:4:\"wp10\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:33:\"http://wordpress.org/news/?p=2561\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:1:{s:0:\"\";a:1:{s:11:\"isPermaLink\";s:5:\"false\";}}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:338:\"In honor of the upcoming 10th anniversary celebrations, we&#8217;ve put a special 10th anniversary tshirt in the swag store at cost &#8212; $10 per shirt plus shipping.

This beta is <strong>actually a beta</strong>, not an alpha that we&#8217;re calling a beta. If you are a WordPress plugin or theme developer, or a WordPress hosting provider, you should absolutely start testing your code against this new version <strong>now</strong>. More bugs will be fixed, and some of the features will get polished, but we&#8217;re not going to shove in some big new feature. We&#8217;re ready for you to test it, so jump in there!

Twenty Thirteen is an opinionated, color-rich, blog-centric theme that makes full use of the new Post Formats support.</li>\n<li><strong>Audio/Video:</strong> You can embed audio and video files into your posts without relying on a plugin or a third party media hosting service.</li>\n<li><strong>Autosave: </strong> Posts are now autosaved locally. If your browser crashes, your computer dies, or the server goes offline as you&#8217;re saving, you won&#8217;t lose the your post.</li>\n<li><strong>Post Locking: </strong> See when someone is currently editing a post, and kick them out of it if they fall asleep at the keyboard.</li>\n<li><strong>Nav Menus: </strong> Nav menus have been simplified with an accordion-based UI, and a separate tab for  bulk-assigning menus to locations.</li>\n<li><strong>Revisions:</strong> The all-new revisions UI features avatars, a slider that &#8220;scrubs&#8221; through history, and two-slider range comparisons.</li>\n</ul>\n<p><strong>Developers: </strong> You make WordPress awesome(er). One of the things we strive to do with every release is be compatible with existing plugins and themes. But we need your help. <strong>Please test your plugins and themes against 3.6.</strong> If something isn&#8217;t quite right, please let us know. (Chances are, it wasn&#8217;t intentional.)

received an email the other day from a concerned 1&amp;1 customer informing me that their <a title=\"http://www.1and1.com/details-click-and-build-apps?linkOrigin=linux-web-hosting\" href=\"http://www.1and1.com/details-click-and-build-apps?linkOrigin=linux-web-hosting\">one-click application installer</a> does not allow WordPress to be automatically upgraded. I sent the following email to 1&amp;1 sales department to figure out why it&#8217;s set-up that way.</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://i0.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/11OneClickInstaller.jpg\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img src=\"http://i2.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/11OneClickInstaller.jpg?resize=484%2C315\" alt=\"One And One Installer\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7718\" /></a></p>\n<blockquote><p>If I understand this correctly, the one click installer for WordPress is not able to be auto-upgraded, correct? If this is the case, why bother having that feature to begin with? It seems to me that is an irresponsible thing for a webhost to do. The ease of installation is a great thing but if it can not be auto-upgraded when a new version of WordPress is released, it makes the ease of installation a moot point. Could someone from 1&#038;1 explain to me why the one click installer for WordPress is set up in this way?</p></blockquote>\n<p>Their response:</p>\n<blockquote><p>Dear Customer,</p>\n<p>Thank you for contacting us.</p>\n<p>Please be informed that for security reasons, the following changes and modifications are not possible in Click &#038; Build applications. Installation of new templates, new plugins, new modules, new components, or new language packages are not allowed as well as insertion of custom source code (e.g. HTML, CSS, JavaScript, or PHP) in preinstalled templates or other places in Click &#038; Build applications.</p>\n<p>However, you can install WordPress manually, just refer to the link below for the steps.</p></blockquote>\n<p>The email goes on to list each step in the manual installation process. So not only can you not upgrade WordPress if it&#8217;s installed via their application installer, but you can&#8217;t install themes, plugins, language packs, or the insertion of code. It&#8217;s as if you&#8217;re using a locked down version of WordPress.com. How many people stick with the default theme, default plugins, etc and don&#8217;t plan on adding anything to WordPress? Slim to none is my guess. Their particular setup has been like this <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-exactly-do-i-edit?replies=20#post-524050\" title=\"http://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-exactly-do-i-edit?replies=20#post-524050\">for over 6 years and counting</a>. I&#8217;d love to see some figures from them on how many people are using their Quick Application installer specifically for WordPress. </p>\n<p>I&#8217;d like to say WordPress is easy to install and for someone who is tech literate, it is. However, after browsing the WordPress.org support forums and seeing so many people struggling to FTP this and MySQL that, it&#8217;s hard to say it&#8217;s easy to install. That&#8217;s why the one click installers were invented, they were supposed to lift the burden of being tech literate to get a WordPress site up and going but by using the click and build installer from 1&#038;1, users are setting themselves up for disaster with more pain and struggles that are unnecessary.</p>\n<p>My advice is to stay away from any of these one click installers and go through the process of manually setting up WordPress. It&#8217;s worth learning in the long run. For tips on installing, I highly recommend the following Codex article, <a href=\"http://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_WordPress\" title=\"http://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_WordPress\">Installing WordPress</a>. For the visual learners, this presentation from WordCamp Phoenix 2013 does a great job explaining how to install WordPress in different ways. <a href=\"https://speakerdeck.com/sereedmedia/installing-wordpress-wordcampphx\" title=\"https://speakerdeck.com/sereedmedia/installing-wordpress-wordcampphx\">These are the slides</a> that go with the presentation.</p>\n<div class=\"aligncenter\"></div>\n<p>I know Fantastico has the ability to install WordPress without the need of FTP or database credentials but does it carry the same limitations? I sure hope what 1&#038;1 provides is not considered the industry standard for quick installations. </p>\n<img src=\"http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/WordpressTavern/~4/7dhCHXLhGlI\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\" />\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Fri, 05 Jul 2013 19:06:58 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:32:\"http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/\";a:1:{s:7:\"creator\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:6:\"Jeffro\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:6;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:2:{s:0:\"\";a:5:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:49:\"WPTavern: Podcast Dedicated To All Things Plugins\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"http://www.wptavern.com/?p=7710\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:101:\"http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/WordpressTavern/~3/25qr7e7rCkM/podcast-dedicated-to-all-things-plugins\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:1765:\"<p>Judging by the stats, folks just can&#8217;t seem to get their fix of plugin information.

They don’t get to choose or replace their representative. We don’t commit to serve them in the future. We have hundreds of competitors with the same strategy. Now where’s my check?</p></blockquote>\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Thu, 04 Jul 2013 18:17:45 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:32:\"http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/\";a:1:{s:7:\"creator\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:4:\"Matt\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:13;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:2:{s:0:\"\";a:5:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:61:\"WordPress.tv: Suzette Franck: Plugin Workshop: WP Super Cache\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:28:\"http://wordpress.tv/?p=20335\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:77:\"http://wordpress.tv/2013/07/03/suzette-franck-plugin-workshop-wp-super-cache/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:670:\"<div id=\"v-zRnCU0QT-1\" class=\"video-player\">\n</div>\n<br />  <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/gocomments/wptv.wordpress.com/20335/\"><img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/comments/wptv.wordpress.com/20335/\" /></a> <img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=wordpress.tv&blog=5089392&post=20335&subd=wptv&ref=&feed=1\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" /><div><a href=\"http://wordpress.tv/2013/07/03/suzette-franck-plugin-workshop-wp-super-cache/\"><img alt=\"Suzette Frank: Plugin Workshop: WP Super Cache\" src=\"http://videos.videopress.com/zRnCU0QT/video-126e06f372_std.original.jpg\" width=\"160\" height=\"120\" /></a></div>\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Thu, 04 Jul 2013 02:36:34 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:32:\"http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/\";a:1:{s:7:\"creator\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:12:\"WordPress.tv\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:14;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:2:{s:0:\"\";a:5:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:65:\"WPTavern: BruteProtect – Protecting Against Brute Force Attacks\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"http://www.wptavern.com/?p=7692\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:113:\"http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/WordpressTavern/~3/JUp8nD3blmw/bruteprotect-protecting-against-brute-force-attacks\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:2635:\"<p><a href=\"http://i1.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/bruteforcelogo.jpg\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img class=\"alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-7693\" alt=\"Brute Protect Logo\" src=\"http://i1.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/bruteforcelogo.jpg?resize=150%2C150\" /></a>I recently received a hat tip from a happy user of the <a title=\"http://bruteprotect.com/\" href=\"http://bruteprotect.com/\">BruteProtect plugin</a> and decided to give it a try myself. The only configuration that is necessary for BruteProtect is to apply a free API key to communicate with the service. If you&#8217;re using the <a title=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/limit-login-attempts/\" href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/limit-login-attempts/\">Limit Login Attempts</a> plugin to block unsuccessful login attempts, you&#8217;ll need to disable it as there is no need to run both plugins. The idea behind BruteProtect is very similar to how Akismet operates. I got in touch with Sam Hotchkiss, one of the lead developers behind the plugin/service to describe how it works.</p>\n<blockquote><p>BruteProtect is sort of like Akismet, but for your WP login&#8211; we track failed logins across a large number of WordPress sites, then analyze that data to find patterns and identify attack bots. &nbsp;The larger our installed base, the more data we have to work with&#8211; this results in more complete protection for site owners and fewer false positives. &nbsp;To date, we&#8217;ve blocked over 1.3 million malicious login attempts from over 131,000 IP addresses.</p></blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"http://i1.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/BruteProtectInAction.jpg\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img src=\"http://i0.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/BruteProtectInAction.jpg?resize=500%2C185\" alt=\"BruteProtectInAction\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-7700\" /></a></p>\n<p>The more people that use BruteProtect, the better protected its users are. The blocking and logging happens behind the scenes. However, there is a new dashboard widget that is created that shows off the number of blocked login attempts and just within the time span of writing this review, it&#8217;s blocked 72 of them. Sam has told me that they are working on big updates that will be available shortly.</p>\n<p>BruteProtect comes from the same folks that are behind <a title=\"https://quickforget.com/\" href=\"https://quickforget.com/\">QuickForget.com</a>. QuickForget gives you a secure way to send passwords, credit card numbers, SSNs, etc.</p>\n<img src=\"http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/WordpressTavern/~4/JUp8nD3blmw\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\" />\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Wed, 03 Jul 2013 23:12:00 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:32:\"http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/\";a:1:{s:7:\"creator\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:6:\"Jeffro\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:15;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:2:{s:0:\"\";a:5:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:27:\"Alex King: FavePersonal 1.3\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:28:\"http://alexking.org/?p=17421\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:52:\"http://alexking.org/blog/2013/07/03/favepersonal-1-3\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:1910:\".threads-post-notice {\n	background: #e8e8e8;\n	padding: 10px;\n}\n.threads-post-notice a {\n	font-weight: bold;\n}\n\n<p>We&#8217;ve released an update to <a href=\"http://crowdfavorite.com/wordpress/themes/favepersonal/\">FavePersonal</a>.

Make sure you test any new plugins on a staging site before going live. As you can see by the most recent posting yesterday, there are sometimes bad plugins that make it through the cracks for a day or so before the community watch takes over and removes the offender.  Don&#8217;t take the risk of losing your hard work and data by installing a plugin that is untested with your unique installation and plugin set. Learn from MY past mistakes. Backup, test, repeat. The following plugins are not endorsements, recommendations or ratings but a mere spoon-sized taste of the latest plugins from the WordPress Plugin Repository. OK, let&#8217;s get plugged in!</p>\n<p><a title=\"WP Revisions Control\" href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-revisions-control/\" target=\"_blank\">WP Revisions Control</a> helps to limit the revision versions that are stored within each WordPress post or page. When installed and activated, this plugin has settings available in the Settings&gt;Writing configuration page. From that point you will set the maximum amount of revisions that are kept for each post type. Plugin author <a title=\"Erick Hitter WordPress Profile\" href=\"http://profiles.wordpress.org/ethitter/\" target=\"_blank\">Erick Hitter</a> foresaw a need for this plugin after revisions started being archived back in WordPress version 3.6. While the new post revision archive was a good advancement, there was no limitation as to how many revisions it capped in the database, which could increase load time and decrease overall site performance. By using an application such as this, you can limit the unwanted clutter that normally occurs when you are editing the same post on a frequent basis. From a personal perspective, I limit my post revision archive count to five. This allows me the opportunity to look back and alter without clogging up my entire database as a result.</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://i0.wp.com/s-plugins.wordpress.org/contact-us-page-contact-people/assets/screenshot-1.jpg\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img class=\"alignright\" alt=\"Contact Us Page Contact People\" src=\"http://i0.wp.com/s-plugins.wordpress.org/contact-us-page-contact-people/assets/screenshot-1.jpg?resize=200%2C231\" /></a><a title=\"Contact Us Contact People WordPress Plugin\" href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/contact-us-page-contact-people/\" target=\"_blank\">Contact Us Page &#8211; Contact People</a> is a very intense plugin by <a title=\"Steve Truman WordPress User Profile\" href=\"http://profiles.wordpress.org/a3rev/\" target=\"_blank\">Steve Truman</a> at A3 Revolution Software for displaying the contact information of people or fixed business locations from around the world. It does so with a very intuitive contact &#8220;blocks&#8221; like feature that is displayed on a grid overlay. Both individuals and departments can be featured as well as overall companies. Google maps are optional add-ins that can be enabled to show the main location and pins of each individual profile location on a map. You have the option to show as little or as much as you&#8217;d like in each individual profile. Another nice feature is that the plugin allows for direct e-mail submission from site visitors to each contact profile. It does so without displaying an e-mail address online, helping to prevent spam. It is also mobile optimized and can be design modified from a single column to a five column layout.</p>\n<p><a title=\"Date Tool WordPress Plugin\" href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/date-tool/\" target=\"_blank\">Date Tool</a> helps to insert date based shortcodes into your content. It&#8217;s great for posts where you frequently have to edit and change the date within the content month after month or year after year. This plugin allows you to set it and forget it, self updating your content by inserting the current chronological variable for you. For example, <strong>Shortcode:</strong> [datetool_current format=\"Y\"] <strong>Output:</strong> 2013 (or what the current year is). It works on dates, day of the month and a lot of other fields to help you prevent the monthly update grind where you have to change dates or months. Remember though, this only changes the content, not the meta data or post titles. You&#8217;ll still have to manually change those items.</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://i2.wp.com/s.wordpress.org/extend/plugins/colored-admin-post-list/screenshot-1.png\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img class=\"alignright\" alt=\"Colored Admin Post List\" src=\"http://i2.wp.com/s.wordpress.org/extend/plugins/colored-admin-post-list/screenshot-1.png?resize=343%2C175\" /></a></p>\n<p><a title=\"Colored Admin Post List WordPress Plugin\" href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/colored-admin-post-list/\" target=\"_blank\">Colored Admin Post List</a> is a simple yet effective method to visually separate post statuses simply by looking at the color. When enabled, you can select a custom color background for draft, future, pending, private and published posts. Once you have your colors set, your posts will all be color-coded for easy sorting or to bring to your attention any older content items that you may have forgotten to finish that are still in draft or private mode. I love coloring the most important cells of my Excel spreadsheets, so this plugin is the next best thing for me in WordPress posts list form!</p>\n<p><a title=\"Related Articles By Tag WordPress Plugin\" href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/related-articles-by-tag/\" target=\"_blank\">Related Articles by Tag</a> may help to fill a particular gap in the site that I own simply based on its namesake. Often when you run a website that is heavily based on the locations and the subsequent location tags, you often find a very large hole when it comes to displaying any sort of related posts functionality. For this particular site I have common tags only when it comes to city name variants. Using a plugin like this would allow me to insert a short code at the bottom of my city-based (or any subject) article that would reference other matching tags in the series without having to try and create categories for every city in the process to get the same functionality. This is a nice plugin for those who use the tag functionality in organized ways.</p>\n<p>Join us again tomorrow as we give you another fine set of plugins to check out.

Unlike other hosting reviews, this one contains no affiliate links and has user submitted data.</p>\n<blockquote><p>It’s over two years since the inaugural Hosting Review, and it’s now time to update the results with some fresh data. A lot has changed in the last two years: managed hosting is now all the range, the cost of basic shared hosting has fallen and some innovative solutions have popped up to power enterprise-level hosting.</p>\n<p>The idea here is simple. Below you’ll find a survey in which you can fill in some details about your host(s). I’ll then collate all that data into a set of recommendations which will be published here on Shout. Collectively, we can create a community and data driven review of the best WordPress hosts.</p></blockquote>\n<p>While the first run in 2011 had over 250 responses, the goal is to push that amount even higher. The more people who truthfully respond to this survey, the better the data will be for everyone. The survey will be open until July 14th where the responses will be tabulated and shared with the public. It will be interesting to see how many results this year will be from folks on managed WordPress hosting accounts such as WPEngine or DreamPress.</p>\n<img src=\"http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/WordpressTavern/~4/W7vAWMKTaa4\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\" />\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Tue, 02 Jul 2013 21:45:37 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:32:\"http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/\";a:1:{s:7:\"creator\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:6:\"Jeffro\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:20;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:2:{s:0:\"\";a:5:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:52:\"WPTavern: Dear Automattic: You Are Losing The Debate\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"http://www.wptavern.com/?p=7656\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:103:\"http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/WordpressTavern/~3/t6gIdbOu4Cw/dear-automattic-you-are-losing-the-debate\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:6328:\"<p><strong>The following post was written by Erlend Sogge Heggen of <a title=\"http://jmonkeyengine.org/\" href=\"http://jmonkeyengine.org/\">jmonkeyengine.org</a>.

Comments really haven’t changed in a decade, and it’s time to spice things up a little &#8211; Matt Mullenweg, <a title=\"http://ma.tt/2008/09/intense-debate-goes-automattic/\" href=\"http://ma.tt/2008/09/intense-debate-goes-automattic/\">in a blog post about IntenseDebate</a></p></blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"http://i2.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/intensedebatelogo.png\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img src=\"http://i1.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/intensedebatelogo.png?resize=189%2C43\" alt=\"IntenseDebate Logo\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2326\" /></a></p>\n<p>I’m seeing more and more blogs opt for alternative commenting solutions. Good data is hard to come by in this area, but the modern top choice appears to be Disqus, by a pretty large margin. I’ve noticed quite a few Facebook Comments too, and countless more custom solutions.</p>\n<p><a title=\"http://disqus.com/\" href=\"http://disqus.com/\">Disqus</a> is powerful, but much too closed down for my taste and it doesn’t give you more than comments. They just made an existing feature a bit easier to use, at the cost of control &amp; ownership (<em>a trade that a frightening amount of people seem only too happy to make these days</em>). They didn’t take comments further, like Matt envisioned. But others have.</p>\n<h2>Forum-powered Comments</h2>\n<p>Power charging your comments with dedicated forum backends. Now there’s an <em>evolution</em> of comments if I ever saw one. When done right, every blog post has the potential to spawn several new conversations, branched out from the same seed. This new trend is gaining a lot of traction, and at the forefront you’ll find <a title=\"http://vanillaforums.org/\" href=\"http://vanillaforums.org/\">Vanilla Forums</a> and <a title=\"http://www.discourse.org/\" href=\"http://www.discourse.org/\">Discourse</a>. Here’s the kicker:</p>\n<p>They both work great with WordPress. Each of these forum packages offers an official WordPress plugin that lets you seamlessly replace your default comments with a slick, forum-powered comments section. Here are some examples:</p>\n<p><a title=\"http://9to5mac.com/\" href=\"http://9to5mac.com/\">http://9to5mac.com/</a> &#8211; Vanilla<br />\n<a title=\"http://penny-arcade.com/report/\" href=\"http://penny-arcade.com/report/\">http://penny-arcade.com/report/</a> &#8211; Vanilla<br />\n<a title=\"http://www.howtogeek.com/\" href=\"http://www.howtogeek.com/\">http://www.howtogeek.com/</a> &#8211; Discourse<br />\n<a title=\"http://boingboing.net/\" href=\"http://boingboing.net/\">http://boingboing.net/</a> &#8211; Discourse</p>\n<h2>So What Is WordPress’ Answer? It Was Supposed To Be IntenseDebate</h2>\n<blockquote><p>We were early in the space with investing in Akismet to solve the spam problem, but now I think the real growth opportunities are in the user interaction and social features across comments. There is a huge opportunity to increase the traffic and engagement of blogs significantly &#8211; Matt Mullenweg, <a title=\"http://ma.tt/2008/09/intense-debate-goes-automattic/\" href=\"http://ma.tt/2008/09/intense-debate-goes-automattic/\">still in a blog post about IntenseDebate</a></p></blockquote>\n<p><a title=\"http://www.intensedebate.com/\" href=\"http://www.intensedebate.com/\">IntenseDebate.com</a> lists 6 sites using their service. 2 of them have since moved on to Disqus (<a title=\"http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2013/06/30/Sarah-Palin-Gettysburg#disqus_thread\" href=\"http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2013/06/30/Sarah-Palin-Gettysburg#disqus_thread\">breitbart.com</a>) and Facebook Comments (<a title=\"http://www.techstars.com/video-exclusively-on-the-next-web-startup-stories-sendgrid/\" href=\"http://www.techstars.com/video-exclusively-on-the-next-web-startup-stories-sendgrid/\">techstars.com</a>) respectively. Again, solid data is hard to come by, but you don’t need to <a title=\"http://www.google.com/trends/explore?q=disqus#q=disqus%2C%20intensedebate&cmpt=q\" href=\"http://www.google.com/trends/explore?q=disqus#q=disqus%2C%20intensedebate&cmpt=q\">look at numbers</a> to realize that Disqus left IntenseDebate in the dust a long time ago.</p>\n<p>Automattic and WordPress as a whole have failed to seize this opportunity. Amazingly enough, there’s still time to make a play in the comments ecosystem. I propose that play to be <a title=\"http://bbpress.org/\" href=\"http://bbpress.org/\">bbPress</a>.</p>\n<p>Imagine discuss.wordpress.com, the hosted version of bbPress. But it wouldn’t host forums per-se. It would exclusively host blog comments, and branching discussions thereof. Just like you can find popular new blogs on wordpress.com, here you would discover trending discussions, emerged from blog posts. Using a plugin (JetPack reluctantly comes to mind) even self-hosted blogs (as well as blogs from other services) could opt-in to host their comments on discuss.wordpress.com.</p>\n<p><strong>The benefits are plentiful</strong>:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Keep using the WordPress.com authentication &amp; userbase built up by JetPack Comments.</li>\n<li>Encourage expansive social interaction between users, just like Matt envisioned.</li>\n<li>Discover and be discovered.</li>\n<li>Many great avenues for paid services, e.g. full blown forums.</li>\n<li>Significantly faster growth for bbPress, a project much closer to home than IntenseDebate ever was.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>tl;dr: Automattic, please put all of your people still working on IntenseDebate and JetPack Comments to work on bbPress.org as a kick-ass open source forum package and hosted service. That’s where the next generation of comments is at.</p>\n<img src=\"http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/WordpressTavern/~4/t6gIdbOu4Cw\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\" />\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Tue, 02 Jul 2013 17:59:07 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:32:\"http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/\";a:1:{s:7:\"creator\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:6:\"Jeffro\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:21;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:2:{s:0:\"\";a:5:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:39:\"WPTavern: The Daily Plugin for 7-2-2013\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"http://www.wptavern.com/?p=7613\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:91:\"http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/WordpressTavern/~3/alulRZtew9s/the-daily-plugin-for-7-2-2013\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:4791:\"<p>The hills are alive with the sounds of plugins. Well, at least on the hill I live on. Welcome to another installment of what we like to call The Daily Plugin, where we plug you into the newest and most interesting plugins found in the WordPress Plugin Repository. Like we always say, make sure to test any plugin on a development or staging site before you go live with anything. Our listings are not official endorsement, rating or rankings, but an occasional virtual fist bump might be thrown down if a plugin is really good. Let&#8217;s see what we have today..</p>\n<p><a title=\"Responsiv WordPress Plugin\" href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/responsiv/\" target=\"_blank\">Responsiv</a> helps you to develop responsive sites by displaying the current browser width and id of the device at the top of the page. I ordinarily need to use a Firefox Add-In to check the browser width and have another that emulates specific mobile devices. Now I can kill both of those and use a native WordPress plugin instead! I can only imagine how this would help a theme developer create in a much faster and streamlined environment. It worked well for me.</p>\n<p><a title=\"Wordpress Landing Pages Plugin\" href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/landing-pages/\" target=\"_blank\">WordPress Landing Pages</a> was recently updated and is something that I will be testing again extensively over the next few weeks. A/B testing I should say! This plugin from David Wells and Hudson Atwell. It allows you to create specific offer or call to action pages that are meant to generate leads or sales with one page of marketing material. This plugin helps to aid in the setup in creating landing pages through WordPress with a step by step start procedure. The beauty of this plugin is that it also gives you the ability to A/B test, in other words test one page vs a second page and monitor the results for the best success rate. Being completely integrated is a true blessing, as are some of the other modules that they have available as a paid add-in. They have many free add-ins as well that provide extra enhancements like Gravity Forms integration and Exit Pop-Ups. For my two cents, this is a plugin worth checking out if you are doing any kind of Pay-Per-Click ads on Google and have a WordPress site. Here&#8217;s a video that shows more:</p>\n<div class=\"aligncenter\"></div>\n<p><a title=\"Spin ReWriter\" href=\"http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/spinrewriter\" target=\"_blank\">SpinRewriter</a> is a plugin that claims to provide the functionality to use &#8220;spintax&#8221; to create randomized phrases and sentence replacement. This is done by placing the text to be randomized in brackets with a pipe delimited modifier. For example: Theodore is a {red|blue|yellow} stuffed {dog|cat|bear} would randomize the color and animal type and theoretically be able to output one of many possible sentences. With that being said, this plugin not only does not work as claimed, but it will not work at all WITHOUT PAYING FOR IT. This plugin needs to be pulled from the repository immediately. Bad execution, bad developer tactics.</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://i2.wp.com/s-plugins.wordpress.org/customer-area/assets/screenshot-01.png\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img class=\"alignleft\" alt=\"Customer Area WordPress Plugin\" src=\"http://i1.wp.com/s-plugins.wordpress.org/customer-area/assets/screenshot-01.png?resize=150%2C125\" /></a><a title=\"Customer Area WordPress Plugin\" href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/customer-area/\" target=\"_blank\">Customer Area</a> from <a title=\"Marvin Labs WordPress Profile\" href=\"http://profiles.wordpress.org/marvinlabs/\" target=\"_blank\">Marvin Labs</a> is a recently updated plugin that provides some unique concepts when interacting with your clients. This plugin allows you the ability to create a private storage area for your customers that includes private files, invoices, and even a notification/message option that let&#8217;s you send a message one-on-one. As someone who uses heavy-duty project management systems that cost upwards of $400 a month, I can tell you that this plugin has some really good options for those with just a few clients or are on a tight company budget. This could also be good as a pseudo-intranet solution within a company or work groups. Worth checking out if you have the need.</p>\n<p>Slim picking today in the Repository, but we&#8217;ll be shaking the repository trees a bit harder tomorrow. Rumor is that a few of the most popular plugins out there are due for some pretty massive overhauls.

I&#8217;m giving an advanced development talk on Saturday called <strong>Current User Can Watch This Talk</strong>. Props to fellow lead developer Mark Jaquith (who is also speaking) for coming up with that clever talk title. Here&#8217;s the description:</p>\n<blockquote><p>At first glance, the WordPress roles and capabilities system is simple. Users have roles, roles have capabilities, and plugins can make simple changes to them. Done, right? Not quite: You’ve been doing it the hard way. A deeper look inside the API reveals a surprising amount of flexibility, including the single most powerful (and dangerous) filter in WordPress. In this talk, you’ll learn how capabilities are “mapped” to other capabilities, and what the difference between primitive and meta capabilities means for your plugins and custom post types. We’ll explore the true hidden powers of the API, like using capability mapping to selectively grant and revoke privileges on the fly, making complex user management more maintainable.</p></blockquote>\n<p>The single most powerful and dangerous filter in WordPress? That sounds both ominous and awesome if you ask me.</p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re interested in presentations aimed at advanced developers at WordCamp San Francisco this year, make sure to also catch the illustrious Mike Adams and Andy Skelton. Mike is talking about security in &#8220;Three Security Issues You Thought You’d Fixed.&#8221; Andy will be presenting a new approach to performance in &#8220;How pcntl_fork() Can Save Us.&#8221; I&#8217;m really looking forward to what they have to say and you should do.</p>\n<p>I&#8217;m also looking forward to talks by Will Norris, Nikolay Bachiyski, and Helen Hou-Sandi. Together, those are six names who have greatly influenced not just WordPress development, but my own work and the contributions of many others. Check out the full line-up <a href=\"http://2013.sf.wordcamp.org/2013/06/21/say-hello-to-our-first-round-of-speakers/\">here</a> and <a href=\"http://2013.sf.wordcamp.org/2013/06/28/our-final-round-of-speakers/\">here</a>. A few <a href=\"http://2013.sf.wordcamp.org/tickets/\">tickets are still available</a> for the July 26–27 conference.</p>\n<p>I also hope to see a lot of people at the Contribute Day on Sunday.

In the <a title=\"http://www.checkmarx.com/white_papers/the-security-state-of-wordpress-top-50-plugins/\" href=\"http://www.checkmarx.com/white_papers/the-security-state-of-wordpress-top-50-plugins/\">report published on June 18th, 2013</a> Checkmarx concluded that more than 20% of the 50 most popular WordPress plugins were vulnerable to common web attacks such as SQL injection. Furthermore, the report revealed that 7 out of the 10 most popular e-commerce plugins for WordPress contained vulnerabilities. First, some background information regarding how the report was put together.</p>\n<p>The research in this survey has nothing to do with the core security of WordPress but rather, the plugins available for it. It&#8217;s important to consider this distinction when reviewing the report. An automated static code analysis developed by Checkmarx was used to scan the source code against the most popular plugins. These included the 50 most downloaded plugins as well as the 10 most popular e-commerce plugins. The scans occurred on two separate occasions. The first was during <strong>January 2013</strong> while the second took place in early <strong>June of 2013</strong>.</p>\n<p>During the first scan, Checkmarx discovered 18 vulnerabilities and notified the developers of four of the vulnerable plugins, then worked with them to apply fixes. After 6 months, the WordPress plugin repository indicated that all 18 plugins had updated versions. The scan was used on these updated versions to see if the vulnerabilities had been fixed. Their automated tool was set to notify when one of the following vulnerabilities was discovered:</p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>SQL Injection (SQLi).</strong> Allows the execution of commands on the back-end server, such as the extraction of sensitive information. In a hosted environment, a SQL Injection attack can further be used as a stepping stone for attacks against non-vulnerable sites. The attacker in this environment can manipulate the database shared by both vulnerable and non-vulnerable sites.</li>\n<li><strong>Cross Site Scripting (XSS)</strong>. Allows the running of a script on the client in order to bypass access controls. This kind of vulnerability targets all visitors to the site. In a hosted environment, this problem is exacerbated where an attack can also be used to steal the session cookies of the site admin. Effectively, it allows the attacker to imposter the admin.</li>\n<li><strong>Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF)</strong>. Allows the attacker to perform an application-level transaction on behalf of the victim. In a hosted environment, an attacker can log onto the site on the admin’s behalf and perform nefarious activities such as re-directing users or performing admin transactions.</li>\n<li><strong>Remote/ Local File Inclusion (RFI/ LFI)</strong>. Allows the uploading of a potentially malicious file to the server. In a CMS environment this is a particularly critical vulnerability as the point of the CMS is to manage and deliver site-related files.</li>\n<li><strong>Path Traversal</strong>. Allows the attacker to crawl the Web pages. In a CMS environment an attacker can exploit this type of vulnerability to access and map all hosted files.</li>\n</ul>\n<p><em>Checkmarx tested the plugins for Path Traversal vulnerabilities only during the second scan.</em></p>\n<ul>\n<li>The findings from the second security scan were definitely an eye opener for me.</li>\n<li>20% of the 50 most popular plugins contained one or more of the vulnerabilities listed above.</li>\n<li>7 out of the top 10 most popular e-commerce plugins were vulnerable to common web attacks</li>\n</ul>\n<p>There is no correlation between the number of <strong>Lines of Code (LOC)</strong> and the vulnerability level of the plugins. Every line of code has the potential impact of introducing a vulnerability. However, Checkmarx has found that the opposite does not hold true. Meaning, the smaller the codebase does not necessarily mean the safer the code. On the contrary – some plugins that included only a few thousand lines of code contained more types of vulnerabilities than plugins containing tens of thousands lines of code.</p>\n<p>Only six plugins out of the 50 scanned in January were completely fixed during the six-month time period between scans. The following screenshot is taken from page 5 of the report that highlights which plugins were fixed. An important note to take away from these 6 plugins is that all of them were notified of their vulnerabilities by Checkmarx. Nowhere in the report is it mentioned that the authors of all the other plugins were afforded the same courtesy.</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://i2.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/SecurityReport.jpg\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-7632\" alt=\"Security Report\" src=\"http://i0.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/SecurityReport.jpg?resize=500%2C387\" /></a></p>\n<p>The report has sound advice some of which has been preached repeatedly over the years. For <strong>starters</strong>, only download plugins from reputable sources. The most notable is the <a title=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/\" href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/\">WordPress plugin repository</a>. By the way, I&#8217;ve noticed more plugin authors hosting their code on <a title=\"https://github.com/\" href=\"https://github.com/\">GitHub</a> only. Take heed plugin authors that if you do this, by default, you&#8217;ve lost a degree or two of trustworthiness because GitHub <strong>is not </strong>the WordPress plugin repository. Instead, I highly recommend having a GitHub version that is kept in-synch with a WordPress plugin repository version. <a title=\"http://wp.tutsplus.com/tutorials/plugins/publishing-wordpress-plug-ins-with-git/\" href=\"http://wp.tutsplus.com/tutorials/plugins/publishing-wordpress-plug-ins-with-git/\">This article on WP Tuts+</a> does a good job explaining how to do that.</p>\n<p>Their <strong>second</strong> piece of advice is to verify the security posture of a plugin by scanning it for security issues. I take issue with this piece of advice because it&#8217;s not like we as end users have a scanner in our back pocket. There is one plugin that is maintained by members of the core WordPress development team called <a title=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/exploit-scanner/\" href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/exploit-scanner/\">Exploit Scanner</a>. However, this plugin is not meant to be a security scanner for plugins, it&#8217;s more for monitoring suspicious activity on a website.</p>\n<p><strong>Three</strong>. Make sure plugins are kept up to date. Thanks to the ease of updating plugins, even in bulk, this is for the most part a painless process.</p>\n<p><strong>Fourth.</strong> Remove any unused plugins. If a plugin is no longer necessary, remove it instead of leaving it on the site deactivated. Use the option to delete the plugin along with its files from the WordPress plugin manager.</p>\n<p>The report ends with recommendations to plugin developers and the WordPress plugin repository as well as any other application platform provider. Plugin authors are encouraged to integrate security within their development process.</p>\n<blockquote><p>The later a vulnerability is discovered, the higher the cost of fixing. But there’s more: a simple fix does not guarantee that the plugin users updated their sites. And until they do, these admins are left with the vulnerable plugins. The solution? Bake security within the plugin development as part of your secure Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) process.</p></blockquote>\n<p>WordPress is not the only platform that has to deal with third-party issues like plugin security. According to Checkmarx, app marketplaces like the WordPress.org repository should:</p>\n<ol>\n<li>Enforce a security policy on apps that enter the marketplace. Although the security of a plugin may seem to be the developer’s problem, platform providers are held responsible in the light of users. Make security your competitive edge and build a marketplace where users can feel secure to return to.</li>\n<li>Authorize only apps that passed the security bar. Provide certification to those apps that stand up to the security policy.</li>\n</ol>\n<p>There is more to the report than what I&#8217;ve covered in this post which you can <a title=\"http://www.checkmarx.com/white_papers/the-security-state-of-wordpress-top-50-plugins/\" href=\"http://www.checkmarx.com/white_papers/the-security-state-of-wordpress-top-50-plugins/\">download and read for free</a> via their website.</p>\n<h2>Where Does This Report Leave Us?</h2>\n<p>WordPress plugin security has always been an issue that occasionally pops to the forefront of people&#8217;s minds. A good example is the <a title=\"http://blog.sucuri.net/2013/05/w3-total-cache-and-wp-super-cache-vulnerability-being-targeted-in-the-wild.html\" href=\"http://blog.sucuri.net/2013/05/w3-total-cache-and-wp-super-cache-vulnerability-being-targeted-in-the-wild.html\">W3 Total Cache and WP Super Cache plugin vulnerabilities</a> in May of this year. It&#8217;s also a discussion we&#8217;ve been having for years. In 2009, I asked <a title=\"http://www.wptavern.com/is-a-plugin-validation-team-a-pipe-dream\" href=\"http://www.wptavern.com/is-a-plugin-validation-team-a-pipe-dream\">whether a plugin validation team was a pipe dream</a>. The idea was taken from the phpBB project where the mod database would only allow mods to be hosted if they passed a strict code review process, ensuring the highest quality mods in an official, central location. Unfortunately, this method really hampered the growth of third-party extensions in their mod repository.</p>\n<p>Today, there are at least a few members of the plugin review team for WordPress.org. These volunteers act as the front-line for plugins submitted to the plugin repository. (<strong>Thank you by the way for your work</strong>) Check out <a title=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/about/guidelines/\" href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/about/guidelines/\">these detailed guidelines</a> on what it takes to be hosted on the repository.</p>\n<p>One of the arguments against having a dedicated team reviewing every line of code for submitted plugins is that there are already a large amount of eyeballs looking over code. Since everything is open-source, anyone can review the code. If the results of the report published by Checkmarx is any indication, there are not enough security minded folks dissecting plugins. It&#8217;s even more worrisome when you consider the results were based on the 50 most popular plugins. Those plugins should have had the most scrutiny considering their popularity yet, they contained vulnerabilities.</p>\n<h2>A Big Problem With No Easy Answer:</h2>\n<p>On the surface, plugin security is a big problem that can not be solved with one action. Instead, it&#8217;s going to take a multi-layered approach. Education is key. The <a title=\"http://make.wordpress.org/docs/plugin-developer-handbook/\" href=\"http://make.wordpress.org/docs/plugin-developer-handbook/\">plugin developer handbook</a> being worked on as part of the handbook series of projects should be the starting point for all WordPress plugin developers. Especially <a title=\"http://make.wordpress.org/docs/plugin-developer-handbook/plugin-security/\" href=\"http://make.wordpress.org/docs/plugin-developer-handbook/plugin-security/\">part three</a> which focuses on plugin security.</p>\n<p>If Checkmarx is able to create an automated scanning analysis tool to discover vulnerabilities within the source code of plugins, why hasn&#8217;t the plugin repository come up with something similar that plugin authors could use as a tool or resource? At the very least, create a plugin that has the scanner built-in. Or, use the scanner as part of the process to review plugins and send them back to the author if a vulnerability is discovered.</p>\n<p>The biggest impact and the one that would make all WordPress users safer would be implementing stricter policies with plugins on the repository. Unfortunately, restrictions and policies go against the open-source nature of WordPress. There is a fine line between the amount and difficulty of rules to be hosted on the repository versus going at it alone. I&#8217;d hate to see plugin authors give up hosting on the repository simply because it&#8217;s too difficult because of the policies. Some would even argue that the guidelines currently in place make it too difficult to be hosted on the repository.</p>\n<p>By the way, if you think someone would be able to make a buck by reviewing code for themes and plugins, you&#8217;re wrong. Sites such as DevPress Code Review were launched only to disappear and ideas like <a href=\"http://WPCodeReview.com\">WPCodeReview.com</a> were discussed but never materialized. While a good idea that was <a title=\"http://lists.automattic.com/pipermail/wp-hackers/2010-August/034146.html\" href=\"http://lists.automattic.com/pipermail/wp-hackers/2010-August/034146.html\">backed by people</a> on the WordPress Hackers mailing list, reality proved otherwise.</p>\n<h2>Throwing My Hands Up In The Air:</h2>\n<p>I don&#8217;t know what it&#8217;s going to take to solve the problem of plugin security. The more I think about it, the more it seems like it&#8217;s a necessary evil of open-source software. For as long as I&#8217;ve been active in the WordPress community, it&#8217;s been accepted by many that the plugin repository is filled with insecure code. The report by Checkmarx not only verifies that thinking, but shows that the problem could be bigger than anyone thought. One of the most unfortunate things about third-party plugins and themes is that if a site is compromised because of them, WordPress usually ends up taking the blame.</p>\n<p>It&#8217;s depressing to think that so many people who love using WordPress are going to end up needing to hire someone to monitor their sites full-time or plunk down cash on something like VaultPress because of the epidemic of plugin vulnerabilities. The ease and joy of using WordPress quickly goes out the window with the introduction of the webmaster security hat. I think it&#8217;s reasonable to believe that the last thought on most WordPress users minds who add functionality to their site through plugins are not wondering if whether or not that plugin contains a security vulnerability. They just want that plugin to work without breaking anything else. To a point, I don&#8217;t think they should have to worry about it. WordPress users are repeatedly told to install/use plugins from a trusted source, the most trusted source being the WordPress plugin repository. <strong>What good is a plugin repository with thousands of plugins if all they end up being are ingredients to a toxic soup of disaster?</strong></p>\n<p>As the plugin repository continues to increase in size, so does the epidemic. WordPress community, what is the cure?</p>\n<img src=\"http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/WordpressTavern/~4/0AQSW293ZYw\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\" />\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Tue, 02 Jul 2013 00:08:32 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:32:\"http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/\";a:1:{s:7:\"creator\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:6:\"Jeffro\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:27;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:2:{s:0:\"\";a:5:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:85:\"WordPress.tv: Reid Peifer: Where The Heck Is Everyone?

This is not a new idea &#8212; it is rooted in the <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/about/philosophy/#decisions\">guiding philosophies for WordPress</a> to make decisions, not options.</p>\n<address>Perhaps unsurprisingly, Hacker News is now up in arms about <a href=\"https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5968237\">Firefox 23 removing the &#8220;Disable Javascript&#8221; option</a>. I&#8217;m really glad to see ex-Mozilla guy <a href=\"http://gkoberger.net/\">Gregory Koberger</a> with the top comment there, linking to a fantastic piece called <a href=\"http://limi.net/checkboxes-that-kill/\">Checkboxes that kill your product</a>. &#8220;A little historical baggage can be a dangerous thing when multiplied by a few hundred million individuals,&#8221; wrote Alex Limi, who does product design strategy at Mozilla. (I had a chance to meet Gregory at a conference in 2011 and he&#8217;s a great web dev follow <a href=\"https://twitter.com/gkoberger\">on Twitter</a>.)</address>\n<p>In WordPress 3.5, I spearheaded a quiet but major purge of UI options. We removed <strong>ten</strong> of them. And we moved another off its own page, which let us drop down to six settings pages, down from eight in 2010. My napkin math shows we removed <em>15 percent</em> of all settings. That&#8217;s a huge improvement. Some of these were break-your-site options. Others might cause confusion. And we have ongoing efforts to simplify or improve a few other settings as well.</p>\n<p>When talking about decisions versus options, I often tell the story of Firefox 4&#8242;s change to tabs on top. I even watched <a href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HmgtW2Iw-kE\">a seven-minute YouTube video</a> explaining exactly why this was a better user experience. (And I couldn&#8217;t agree more.) But then, at the end of the video, after all of the convincing arguments, they mention there is an option to put it back. My heart sank. It was a compelling video, but the community forced them to compromise by keeping in core a completely separate workflow, despite making a strong statement that it was <em>clearly inferior</em>. Firefox is highly extensible. An extension could have changed it back. By keeping it in Firefox core, you now have double the user flows to test, your QA testing suffers, users suffer, everything suffers.</p>\n<p>Firefox may be the people&#8217;s browser, it may be the one true open browser project, but that doesn&#8217;t mean it is a kitchen sink. I didn&#8217;t actually realize that Firefox still had the Disable JavaScript option. I have been using an extension to toggle JavaScript in Firefox, as sometimes I have to test no-JS situations. The fact that I didn&#8217;t know the option existed, though, is only one indication that this is a problem. This single option enables a user to do so much damage to their web browsing experience that it is absurd for it to exist. This is Limi&#8217;s point.</p>\n<p>I can&#8217;t quote from the writings of GNOME contributor Havoc Pennington enough. His posts did a lot to inform early development of WordPress, and continue to make an impact today. Here&#8217;s what I shared in 2011:</p>\n<blockquote><p>It turns out that preferences have a cost. Of course, some preferences also have important benefits – and can be crucial interface features. But each one has a price, and you have to carefully consider its value. Many users and developers don’t understand this, and end up with a lot of cost and little value for their preferences dollar.</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Too many preferences means you can’t find any of them.</li>\n<li>Preferences really substantively damage QA and testing.</li>\n<li>Preferences make integration and good UI difficult.</li>\n<li>The point of a good program is to do something specific and do it well.</li>\n<li>Preferences keep people from fixing real bugs.</li>\n<li>Preferences can confuse many users.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>I find that if you’re hard-core disciplined about having good defaults that Just Work instead of lazily adding preferences, that naturally leads the overall UI in the right direction. Issues come up via bugzilla or mailing lists or user testing, and you fix them in some way other than adding a preference, and this means you have to think about the right UI and the right way to fix problems. Basically, using preferences as a band-aid is the root of much UI evil.</p></blockquote>\n<p>For more written by Pennington, see these essays from <a href=\"http://ometer.com/free-software-ui.html\">2002</a> and <a href=\"http://ometer.com/features.html\">2004</a>.</p>\n<p>Perhaps tellingly, I also wrote then &#8220;WordPress is known for its simplicity and usability, but I can still think of a half-dozen options I wouldn’t hesitate to remove under the right circumstances.&#8221; In WordPress 3.5, the circumstances were right. Promise kept!</p>\n<p><em>Addendum:</em> In that long Hacker News thread (300 comments and climbing) Gregory also commented:</p>\n<blockquote><p>Try an extension? Power users aren&#8217;t the target market for this decision, and that&#8217;s why add-ons exist.</p></blockquote>\n<p>This is also a great time to review the sections <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/about/philosophy/#majority\">Designing for the Majority</a> and <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/about/philosophy/#minority\">The Vocal Minority</a> on the WordPress philosophy page.</p>\n<p class=\"share-sfc-stc\"><a href=\"http://twitter.com/share?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwp.me%2FpQEdq-14z&count=horizontal&related=nacin&text=Firefox%20makes%20a%20decision%2C%20removes%20an%20option\" class=\"twitter-share-button\"></a></p>\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Mon, 01 Jul 2013 14:04:03 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:32:\"http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/\";a:1:{s:7:\"creator\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:12:\"Andrew Nacin\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:29;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:2:{s:0:\"\";a:5:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:39:\"WPTavern: The Daily Plugin for 7-1-2013\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"http://www.wptavern.com/?p=7578\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:91:\"http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/WordpressTavern/~3/BjB9fyGUmK8/the-daily-plugin-for-7-1-2013\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:6238:\"<p>Hope you had an enjoyable weekend. It&#8217;s time to start your week with another fresh batch of plugins from the WordPress Plugins Repository. As we venture into the details of each plugin, bear in mind that none of this text represents endorsements or official ratings. This is merely a sampling of what new plugins have been released and my immediate reactions and possible usage examples. Remember to always test plugins on a staging or development site before going live. If you enjoy the plugins you learn about, please consider making a donation to the authors of any plugins you use. It helps to keep the community thriving and might just make the difference in a developer deciding to continue upgrading the plugin in the future. With that said, let&#8217;s get plugged in!</p>\n<p><strong><a title=\"Attachment Files Importer\" href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/attachment-files-importer/\" target=\"_blank\">Attachment Files Importer</a></strong> is a new plugin that helps with an age-old problem when dealing with migrating a WordPress site from a staging area to a live domain. often times all of the posts export and import correctly, however the media doesn&#8217;t seem to make its way over to the new site as easily as you would expect. This plug-in helps fill that gap by creating a bridge from your old content to the new content copying over the necessary files and images to your new site. In case of duplicates it does not overwrite any existing files. For any of you web design specialists who use WordPress and frequently migrate over content, this is a plug-in you might want to take a look at.</p>\n<p><strong><a title=\"NT Redirect\" href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/nt-redirect/\" target=\"_blank\">NT Redirect</a></strong> is an easy &#8220;set and forget&#8221; plugin that takes every external link and automatically applies a rel=&#8221;nofollow&#8221; attribute to them.  This is great if you want to control the &#8220;link leakage&#8221; that you just don&#8217;t have time to police yourself all the time. There are often other plugins that pull in affiliate feeds, rss feeds, etc. These plugins are often automated and you do not always have control in how the links come over. This plugin solves that by enforcing an across the site solution of nofollow.</p>\n<p><strong><a title=\"HashBuddy - Hashtags for Buddypress\" href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/hashbuddy/\" target=\"_blank\">HashBuddy</a></strong> allows you the capability to insert #hash tags into BuddyPress similar to the functionality in Twitter and Facebook. This allows your BuddyPress users to filter topics and activities based on topic hashtags. This is a pretty cool way to provide even more functionality with BuddyPress. I run a BP site that could really use this instead of the default search function results.</p>\n<p><strong><a title=\"WP Remember Your Posts\" href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-remember-your-posts/\" target=\"_blank\">WP Remember Your Posts</a></strong> is a bit of a blogging history reminder, personalized just for you. Essentially this plugin will email you to remind you of your posts from one year earlier. Though in some cases with some of my early blogs with infrequent posting activity, I&#8217;m afraid this plugin would run out of things to do rather quickly. However, if you are a frequent poster and have use to reference something that happened &#8220;a year ago on this date&#8221;, then this may be a plugin that will drive your inspiration or at least subtle nostalgia.</p>\n<p><strong><a title=\"Reddit Lurker WordPress Plugin\" href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/reddit-lurker/\" target=\"_blank\">Reddit Lurker</a></strong> &#8211; This Reddit plugin allows access to Reddit&#8217;s API in WordPress. Place a shortcode of  in your posts or pages and output Reddit links, votes, usernames and comments from individually designated &#8220;sub-reddits&#8221;. The plugin only works one way, pulling the data from Reddit. It will not go the other way and post any comments or otherwise TO Reddit.</p>\n<p><strong><a title=\"Show Once\" href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/showonce/\" target=\"_blank\">Show Once</a> </strong>has my brain spinning today. It&#8217;s a plugin that as it&#8217;s namesake implies, let&#8217;s you use a shortcode that shows content only once to a visitor. For example it shows one-time messages to users that requires a &#8220;dismiss&#8221; or &#8220;agreed&#8221; button to be hit. It can be used as a new user welcome message for first time site visitors or even as agreements to terms and conditions. You can also incorporate direct post IDs into the shortcode so that pull from your existing post content, such as [ShowOnce post=420] would output post id#420, or [ShowOnce post=33,212,420] would output the contents of posts ids 33, 212 and 420. When you add something like date qualifiers it can display from only certain start points, display until a certain end point, or display between a range of dates. Acknowledgements are assigned as required through the shortcode as well. [ShowOnce post=420 show=dismiss style=2 from=10/11/13 to=12/11/13] Will display contents of ShowOnce custom post id 420 and will not be removed until the user clicks the &#8220;dismiss&#8221; link that uses custom css style id 2 (which you would have to have created yourself) from the date specified forward, with no end date. Wow, this one does a ton. I am still wrapping my head around all the possibilities that this could conjure up, especially when considering you use other posts for the content.

It&#8217;s encouraging to see the growth of the submission flow over the course of several years. Not only do we see a big variety of new plugins in both the subject matter and functionality, but there are much many older or abandoned plugins that are being retooled and re-released by newly energized coders and developers. Before we dive in to today&#8217;s samplings remember that the following plugins are not endorsements or ratings but rather small samples of what new plugins have been published into the WordPress Plugin Repository. Always test on a staging or development site before going live and make a backup of any live site before activating. OK, let&#8217;s get plugged in!</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://i2.wp.com/wordpress.org/plugins/wp-fancy-message-box/screenshot-1.png\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img class=\"alignright\" alt=\"WP Fancy Message Box\" src=\"http://i2.wp.com/wordpress.org/plugins/wp-fancy-message-box/screenshot-1.png?resize=167%2C202\" /></a><a title=\"WP Fancy Message Box\" href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-fancy-message-box/\" target=\"_blank\">WP Fancy Message Box</a> enables many different message or error boxes in various styles and colors which you can configure. Implemented via shortcode, such as <strong><em>[wpfmb type=\'info\' theme=1]your message[/wpfmb]</em></strong><em></em>.<em> </em>As you can see, there are many different message box &#8220;themes&#8221; you can use, like success, error, warning, info, or whatever options you would like to customize. It would be great to have complete control over colors, icons used and other CSS options, though it can easily be hacked through to make the design conform to your choosing. <em><br />\n</em></p>\n<p><a title=\"AwesomePress\" href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/awesomepress/\" target=\"_blank\">AwesomePress</a> This offering enables <a title=\"FontAwesome\" href=\"http://fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/\" target=\"_blank\">Font Awesome</a> Icons for WordPress. For those of you who are not aware of it, FontAwesome is a font specifically designed for Bootstrap that allows you to use a common font to display frequently used web icons. There are over 350 high resolution scalable vector icons in the single font with full CSS control. This results in a WordPress site with clean, defined icons and category headings.</p>\n<p><a title=\"Vimeo Master\" href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/vimeo-master/\" target=\"_blank\">Vimeo Master</a> is a new plugin presenting you the ability to embed any Vimeo video in HTML 5 code format. What impresses me about this plugin is that it contains no Ajax or JavaScript. This allows for fast load time and is completely responsive. Short codes can be used to embed the video anywhere within your WordPress installation. You have full control over size, color, looping and autoplay options are also available. You also have the option to display links to your Vimeo profile.</p>\n<p><a title=\"Thumbnail Upload\" href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/thumbnail-uploads/\" target=\"_blank\">Thumbnail Upload</a> is a plugin that permits you to upload your own thumbnail in relation to a specific post. This overrides any featured image resize options that may be in place which would ordinarily serve up a thumbnail. I enjoy having the creative freedom to choose my own thumbnails for my posts. There are often times in which I want to use an animated gif file to highlight a particular story or featured blog posts. By allowing this option I am now able to provide a much more aesthetic look and feel that conforms to the theme that I am using.</p>\n<p><a title=\"Disable Author Pages\" href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/disable-author-pages/\" target=\"_blank\">Disable Author Pages</a> allows you The opportunity to disable the standard ../author URL designation and instead redirect to a dedicated page. This is something that I&#8217;ve always thought WordPress lacked when it came to providing attribution to the author. This plugin allows for a completely new page to be created that contains an author&#8217;s bio, social networking channels, and even the most recent feed items from a multitude of sources around the Internet. This plugin is a big improvement over the off the rack options provided by your standard WordPress installation.</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://i2.wp.com/s-plugins.wordpress.org/wp-ultimate-recipe/assets/screenshot-1.png\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img class=\"alignright\" alt=\"WP Ultimate Recipe\" src=\"http://i0.wp.com/s-plugins.wordpress.org/wp-ultimate-recipe/assets/screenshot-1.png?resize=311%2C427\" /></a><a title=\"WP Ultimate Recipe\" href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-ultimate-recipe/\" target=\"_blank\">WP Ultimate Recipe</a> helps those who want to create an archival of recipes on their WordPress site. It utilizes short codes or simply by clicking on the &#8220;insert recipe&#8221; button within the editor itself. The features for this plugin are quite robust, tracking ingredients, what type of course the meal is, ethnicity and cuisine type. All of these are tracked as taxonomies which means that you can sort them by any of the fields mentioned. This would result in being able to view all recipes that contain a specific ingredient, or listing all desserts as a type of cuisine selection. Photos can be added to show any stage of the recipe from start to finish. There is also an option to print the recipe with or without images. The plugin is fully responsive on all devices. It is also easily translatable, and I have tested it with Google translate with favorable results. The output looks great and entering recipes into the system is simple to do.</p>\n<p>Join us again on Monday for another edition of the Daily Plugin as we unwrap the cellophane on the newest plugins from the WordPress repository.

I&#8217;m hoping to accomplish this in two ways: <strong>1)</strong> Pay expert presenters for their time so that I can curate high quality presentations on an on-going basis; <strong>2)</strong> Eventually release the presentations for free on <a title=\"http://www.wordpress.tv\" href=\"http://www.wordpress.tv\">WordPress.tv</a> to expand and improve our collective knowledge base. I&#8217;m also doing this for myself, because I really want to learn from all the presenters I&#8217;ve selected, specifically.</p>\n<p><strong>How will WPSessions be different than say, WPClassroom.com?</strong></p>\n<p><a href=\"http://i2.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/WPClassroomlogo.png\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7590\" alt=\"WPClassroom Logo\" src=\"http://i0.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/WPClassroomlogo.png?resize=240%2C70\" /></a></p>\n<p>The focus of WP sessions is largely based on the idea of an on-demand WordCamp, broadcast directly into your home and available on your own time. It is not intended to be a course-based learning site, or a series of instructional lessons, but a monthly event featuring live presentations and Q&amp;A with lots of different experts. I didn&#8217;t want to build something that competed with the many great resources that already exist in our community (e.g. <a href=\"http://webdesign.com\">http://webdesign.com</a>, <a href=\"http://wp101.com\">http://wp101.com</a>, <a href=\"http://bobwp.com\">http://bobwp.com</a>, etc), rather I wanted to build something that complimented them.</p>\n<p><strong>Will any of these sessions find their way onto WordPress.tv?</strong></p>\n<p>Yes! All of them, in fact. My primary goal when I set out to launch the site was to build something that could benefit everyone, regardless of how much money they had set aside for their own education. So, because of that, every presentation will make its way to WordPress.tv four months after the session has aired. The time delay, for any curious, is indeed to help sell more tickets and offset the up-front cost of hosting these events.</p>\n<p><strong>If people have to pay for a seat to attend a session and these sessions will at some point arrive on WordPress.tv, where is the incentive to pay now instead of wait and watch later?</strong></p>\n<p>The incentive, I think, is to help fund a new community-focused project and reward those who are willing to teach. Certainly, it grants you earlier access to the content, but it also gives you an opportunity to put some money back in the pockets of each expert who is taking time out of their busy schedule to impart their hard-won knowledge. Paying for the sessions, I think, also helps underscore the value of the knowledge and experience being shared. Sure, you can find much of what these experts have to teach on your own for free, but not all of it, and definitely not in such a conveniently packaged and digestible format (nor do you have such direct access to ask these experts questions).</p>\n<p>Additionally, paying for sessions will also help me fund scholarships for people who are looking to bolster their knowledge and skills, but have no money to invest just yet (e.g. students)</p>\n<p><strong>You have two sessions to start out. <a title=\"http://wpsessions.com/sessions/building-a-wordpress-business/\" href=\"http://wpsessions.com/sessions/building-a-wordpress-business/\">Building A WordPress Business</a> and <a title=\"http://wpsessions.com/sessions/building-wordpress-plugins/\" href=\"http://wpsessions.com/sessions/building-wordpress-plugins/\">Building WordPress Plugins</a>. Any other sessions planned for later this year you can tell us about?</strong></p>\n<p><a href=\"http://i1.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/UpcomingSessions.png\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-7589\" alt=\"Upcoming Sessions\" src=\"http://i2.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/UpcomingSessions.png?resize=500%2C79\" /></a><br />\nI have spoken with 27 different experts from our community so far, and all of them have said yes to presenting. I can only tell you about the next two sessions for certain, though, because I haven&#8217;t planned anything out beyond that. All of this depends on the first two sessions not being a total flop :)</p>\n<p>The third session, happening sometime in August, will focus on Performance-driven Development and feature the mighty brains of Daniel Bachhuber, Aaron Jorbin and Zack Tollman. I&#8217;m planning on a double-session for September, a WP Theme Bootcamp so to speak, featuring six different theme experts each talking about a different aspect of the theme building process. From there, I already have enough experts and topics to carry us into February.</p>\n<p><strong>The idea of scholarships is intriguing. What kind of scholarships were you thinking of offering at some point?</strong></p>\n<p>I&#8217;d like to be able to offer a couple of different scholarship levels: semester (4 months) and year-long. The limit of how many I can give away really depends on how many tickets I can sell, but I&#8217;d love to admit 10 students to each level at each interval. This could also be a good opportunity for responsible sponsors and/or donations, perhaps, we&#8217;ll see how things go.</p>\n<p><strong>Can you tell us some of the technology that will help WPSessions tick such as what you&#8217;ll be using for streaming live video and if the site will be utilizing any special plugins?</strong></p>\n<p>Sure! At the moment the storefront is powered by WooCommerce. I&#8217;m running Stripe to handle credit card payments, and PayPal to facilitate anyone who can&#8217;t/doesn&#8217;t want to use a credit card. For these first two sessions I&#8217;m using Google Hangout to handle the presentations, but I&#8217;m looking into other options for the long-haul. The session viewing page itself is powered by a custom plugin I wrote just for this purpose. It registers a &#8220;Session&#8221; post type, and then uses custom meta fields for storing relevant information and posts-to-posts for connecting the session to its experts (users) and product. Beyond that, it also has a bit of logic to control who can see the content, and what content to show at what time.</p>\n<p>I&#8217;m also running Gravity Forms to power the contact page and follow-up surveys, BackupBuddy to facilitate scheduled site backups, and a couple of other utility plugins I wrote to make WooCommerce more friendly for my purposes. I might also integrate BadgeOS for awarding digital badges for each session attended, which I think might be pretty neat to collect.</p>\n<p><strong>Last but not least, anything you&#8217;d like to say to the general WordPress community concerning WPSessions?</strong></p>\n<p>What I&#8217;d really like is some critical feedback on the project. I think it&#8217;s a great idea, of course, and I&#8217;m really excited about it, but I&#8217;d love to hear more from a broader scope of people. Are they even interested in this style of live-training? Is there anything I could add or do differently that makes it more attractive? Which time of the week is most convenient for the largest number of people around the world? Do more people want deeper, high-level presentations, or entry-level/introductory presentations? I have lots of guesses, but no firm answers.</p>\n<p>At the moment it&#8217;s all just theory and one great experiment. I hope that others are interested and excited, and I hope they vote with their dollars that this idea should exist so I can help it grow :)</p>\n<img

need your help diagnosing whether I have a hosting problem, a WordPress problem, or if the combination of the two are causing the problem. For starters, WPTavern is hosted on HostGator.com. I&#8217;ve had few problems over the years but within the past few months, I&#8217;ve had my share of issues. I&#8217;ve been using the latest version of WordPress 3.6 during it&#8217;s development cycle. Here is the re-occurring problem. If I leave the <strong>Post Writing</strong> panel open in WordPress for an extended period of time, leave that browser tab to do other things and come back to it later, I&#8217;ll usually see a red warning message that tells me I&#8217;ve been disconnected from the server and that the message will disappear once a connection has been re-established. When I try to re-establish a connection, it takes forever to load the WPTavern website and if I&#8217;m lucky, I&#8217;ll see a <strong>500 Internal Server Error</strong>. I&#8217;ll then log into cPanel for the WPTavern account, browse the processes section and see <strong>24/25</strong> process running. It looks something like this.</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://i2.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/siteoffline.jpg\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-7554\" alt=\"Site Offline Errors\" src=\"http://i2.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/siteoffline.jpg?resize=500%2C434\" /></a>When all of those processes are running, it causes the site to automatically get turned off by the host as it thinks the site is using up too many resources. I have no idea what this means other than it has some sort of relation to WordPress trying to re-establish a connection after the <strong>Post Writing</strong> panel is open for an extended amount of time with no activity. It&#8217;s almost as if something in WordPress gets stuck, generates another process, gets stuck, and the process repeats until the site is shut down. Like WordPress is denying service to itself. In the course of the past two months, I&#8217;ve gone through and cleaned up plugins, cleaned up the database, installed caching plugins, implemented CloudFlare and generally, <a title=\"http://www.wptavern.com/my-performance-woes\" href=\"http://www.wptavern.com/my-performance-woes\">have spring-cleaned the entire site</a> and this problem is still occurring.</p>\n<p>I want to know if anyone else is experiencing or has experienced a similar behaviour on their WordPress installation, especially if you are using HostGator as the webhost and the latest version of WordPress (3.6 development version).</p>\n<p>Oh and before you tell me to just switch to another webhost, this site will eventually be moved somewhere else but for the time being, I&#8217;d love to be able to conclude what is causing these problems.</p>\n<img src=\"http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/WordpressTavern/~4/CvWHyPYSHKs\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\" />\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Wed, 26 Jun 2013 20:49:18 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:32:\"http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/\";a:1:{s:7:\"creator\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:6:\"Jeffro\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:44;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:13:\"\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:2:{s:0:\"\";a:5:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:41:\"WPTavern: The Daily Plugin for 06-26-2013\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"http://www.wptavern.com/?p=7524\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:93:\"http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/WordpressTavern/~3/w6Dk8HbY5w0/the-daily-plugin-for-06-26-2013\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:6140:\"<p>It&#8217;s time once again to put on your digital apron and join me in the heat of the WordPress Repository kitchen to see what new plugins have just finished baking. There are plenty of tasty bits of plugin technology awaiting us today, but before we bite into today&#8217;s menu let&#8217;s all remember that these plugins are not endorsed or rated, but are highlighted to show a representation of the newest plugins in the repository. Always test on a development site before going live. Let&#8217;s get plugged in!</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://i2.wp.com/wordpress.org/plugins/dictionary/screenshot-1.png\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img class=\"alignright\" alt=\"Dictionary WordPress Plugin\" src=\"http://i1.wp.com/wordpress.org/plugins/dictionary/screenshot-1.png?resize=201%2C247\" /></a><a title=\"Dictionary WordPress Plugin\" href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/dictionary/\" target=\"_blank\">Dictionary</a> is a sidebar widget that displays random words and their definitions to help your site viewers brush up on their vocabulary. It also has an inline word definition search feature enabling the user to look up words on their own. It was once said that the Dictionary was a great book because it had all the other books within it. In addition to displaying just the plain old dictionary, this plug-in also allows you the ability to restrict the dictionary to only the words that you want to include or add your own list of words and definitions from the dashboard panel. While not for your typical blog or WordPress site, this is a nice plugin that would work well for schools or other educational institutions. It would probably also work very well for those who would like to display technical terms associated with their business as opposed to the standard one page glossary of terms that many websites use.</p>\n<p><a title=\"FBar Social WordPress Plugin\" href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/fbar-social/\" target=\"_blank\">FBar Social</a> is a new plugin from Ngan Tengyuen that displays a full social networking top bar when the user scrolls down the page beyond the main menu navigation. It displays options for Facebook, Twitter Google+, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Instagram, YouTube and just plain old RSS subscription. It also allows for social shares via a Facebook likes, Tweets and Google +1 for the site in general. Editing options include the ability to change the color of the bar, enable either fixed or full width display and add more buttons like Digg and StumbleUpon. At just 150 kB this is a lightweight plug-in with a very small footprint.</p>\n<p><a title=\"Converter WordPress Plugin\" href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/converter/\" target=\"_blank\"><img class=\"   alignright\" alt=\"Ingredients Converter plugin\" src=\"http://i1.wp.com/wordpress.org/plugins/converter/screenshot-1.png?resize=166%2C182\" />Converter</a> is a plugin used for those who want to convert units of measurement for cooking, such as Tsp to Oz, Cups to Gallons, etc. This plug-in gives you the option to include actual food ingredients (such as converting the weight of wheat flour from ounces to tablespoons) The data is derived from two internal CSV files which can be edited to include new food items or ingredients of your choosing.</p>\n<p><a title=\"Simple Business Hours WordPress Plugin\" href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-business-hours/\" target=\"_blank\">Simple Business Hours</a> plugin helps you display a business&#8217; hours of operation as a widget. From an editing perspective this allows you to enter the businesses hours of operation on a daily basis, and even select which days the business is closed. Because this plug-in is widgetized, You can insert different hours of operation for different businesses or locations all within the same WordPress installation. The widget title is completely customizable allowing you to separate and properly identify locations and their respective hours.</p>\n<p><a title=\"FP News Ticker\" href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/fp-news-ticker/\" target=\"_blank\">FP News Ticker</a> is a jquery-based plugin by Flourish Pixel that populates your most recent post titles or the titles of any external RSS feed onto a transitions based news ticker. Edit options include the transition, speeds and full CSS control of overall appearance.</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://i1.wp.com/wordpress.org/plugins/fp-linkedin-profile/screenshot-2.png\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img class=\"alignright\" alt=\"LinkedIn Profile\" src=\"http://i2.wp.com/wordpress.org/plugins/fp-linkedin-profile/screenshot-2.png?resize=224%2C181\" /></a><a title=\"FP LinkedIn Profile\" href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/fp-linkedin-profile/\" target=\"_blank\">FP LinkedIn Profile</a> is another new offering by Flourish Pixel that enables you to display your profile link and statistics within the sidebar. Out of all the social networks that exist today LinkedIn has the most underutilized potential when it comes to integrating with WordPress. This particular plug-in allows you to display LinkedIn information in a variety of ways. You can choose the option to just displaying your link in avatar image with a link to your profile, or opt for fully blown exposure by including Information about similar contacts and who people have viewed that are similar to your profile. To me, the second option seems a bit overkill. I would rather see a feed of my posts or activity on LinkedIn to encourage others to connect with me. But again, I&#8217;m not even certain that LinkedIn allows this kind of functionality. Either way, this plug-in is easy to use and install, providing an excellent means for your site viewers to connect with you on LinkedIn.</p>\n<p>Join us again tomorrow as we slash our way through the Repository jungle together in search of hidden plugin treasures.

The deal consisted entirely of cash with financial details not disclosed. BlogDroid customers will be moved over to the Page.ly hosting platform while Page.ly will obtain control over the BlogDroid domain. During the transition, the BlogDroid sales team will point new customers to Page.ly. This is the first time I&#8217;ve ever heard of BlogDroid but according to the <a title=\"http://blog.page.ly/2013/06/page-ly-acquires-blogdroid/\" href=\"http://blog.page.ly/2013/06/page-ly-acquires-blogdroid/\">press release</a>, they were a fast growing company in the managed WordPress hosting space:</p>\n<blockquote><p>BlogDroid was an attractive acquisition for Page.ly due to their impressive growth in a short period of time, a more polished brand than most competitors, and the “customer-first” approach made by Karen Jackie, co-founder of BlogDroid. She had the following to say about the acquisition</p></blockquote>\n<p>Congrats to both companies and I hope the transition goes over well for all BlogDroid customers. To get a more detailed perspective on how this acquisition came to be, read the <a title=\"http://www.blogdroid.com/blogdroid-has-been-acquired-by-pagely/\" href=\"http://www.blogdroid.com/blogdroid-has-been-acquired-by-pagely/\">announcement post</a> on the official BlogDroid blog.

Some of you WordPress old timers might know me from my site called <a title=\"http://www.themelab.com\" href=\"http://www.themelab.com\">Theme Lab</a> where I used to release a lot of free WordPress themes, along with tutorials on how to do WordPress and CSS stuff, among other things. Unfortunately do to time constraints while being a full-time college student for the past three years, I didn’t really have time to update it much.</p>\n<p>The site still pays for itself (and more) through affiliate and direct ad sales, and still has (surprisingly) pretty steady search engine traffic to a lot of the old tutorials and themes still up on the site. I still get a few thousand daily visitors, and have no plans to take down the site any time soon.</p>\n<p>I just graduated college this year (May 2013, which is a little more than a month ago at the time of this posting) and was hired to be a WordPress developer for a local DC company called <a title=\"http://socialdriver.com/\" href=\"http://socialdriver.com/\">Social Driver</a> where I&#8217;m now working full-time as a developer, mostly doing WordPress stuff. The work I’ve done with Theme Lab definitely played a huge role in my ultimate hiring there.</p>\n<p>It’s a really laid-back work environment, and I have the opportunity to work on a lot of bigger WordPress projects I probably wouldn’t have had the opportunity to as a lone freelancer. Let’s face it, large organizations would rather pay a premium and hire a proven firm over a one-man shop, which is how I was previously operating. Now I work in a team which features a full-time designer, project manager, and another developer. I’ve only been working there a few weeks, but so far it has been a great experience.</p>\n<p><strong>Why did you decide to join the WPTavern forum in 2009?</strong></p>\n<p><a href=\"http://i2.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/LelandJoinsTheTavern.jpg\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-7513\" alt=\"Leland Joins The Tavern\" src=\"http://i0.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/LelandJoinsTheTavern.jpg?resize=224%2C119\" /></a>Back in 2009, WPTavern was just the place to be for active WordPress community members. When I say &#8220;<strong>active community members</strong>,&#8221; I mean the people who were on Twitter all day, IRC all day, interacting with each other all day. The people who lived and breathed WordPress, were people seemed to be active members at WPTavern as well.</p>\n<p>The only “<strong>competing</strong>” forum at the time was the WordPress.org support forum, which mainly composed of support requests from the millions of WordPress users around the world. There wasn’t so much discussion about business (and other WordPress-related, but non-support stuff) like there was on WPTavern. Basically, it cut out a lot of the noise.</p>\n<p><strong>How did the WPTavern community help you progress with WordPress in the past 4 years?</strong></p>\n<p>The amazing thing about the WPTavern community, as well as the greater WordPress community as a whole, is its diversity. It’s an international phenomenon (just take a look at some of the WordCamp locations around the world) comprising of many different people with many different skillsets. There are the developers, the designers, the writers, the marketers, the social media “gurus“ (as much as I hate that word, some people know what they‘re doing), and the entrepreneurs. WordPress brings all that together.</p>\n<p>The WPTavern community, as well as the greater WordPress community as a whole, has helped myself progress with not just WordPress, but development techniques, content writing, entrepreneurship, social media strategy, and the list goes on. It&#8217;s a truly awesome community with a lot of passion, and I’m glad to be a part of it.</p>\n<p><strong>What was the idea and motivation behind the Theme Lab website?</strong></p>\n<p><a href=\"http://i2.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/ThemeLabWebsite2013.jpg\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-7514\" alt=\"ThemeLab Website\" src=\"http://i1.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/ThemeLabWebsite2013.jpg?resize=500%2C372\" /></a></p>\n<p>First of all, I just wanted to point out that it’s been <strong>6 years</strong> since I started Theme Lab. It’s been a while. Before that, I was really into buying and selling domain names along with basic web development. It was from there that I discovered WordPress, and it all progressed from there.</p>\n<p>When developing my domain names, I tried out countless CMS&#8217;s (for those familiar with Fantastico, I tried pretty much everything in there) like Mambo (which was later forked into Joomla), Xoops, PHPNuke, just to name a few. Nothing quite stuck like WordPress did.</p>\n<p>On top of its ease of use, what really hooked me in was the (previously described) community surrounding it. Pretty much any problem I had, I could find a solution with a simple Google search. It could’ve been a tutorial, WordPress.org support forum thread, or just a plugin with the functionality I was looking for. I could do pretty much anything I wanted to with it by just hacking up my theme.</p>\n<p>Through this continuous theme hacking, I started to get pretty good at actually developing themes. I realized you could turn pretty much any type of template into a WordPress theme by just plugging in WordPress template tags in certain places, along with basic understanding of theming concepts (like the Loop, widgetization, etc.).</p>\n<p>So I decided to start a WordPress theme site with the idea of releasing WordPress themes to the public. I did an available domain search for “theme” keywords, and found that themelab.com had recently dropped. I liked the sound of it, so I went with it.</p>\n<p>This was a time when the theme industry was in its relative infancy. Just to put it in perspective, this was when the RevolutionTheme was one of the few commercial themes available, and the vast majority of themes were free.</p>\n<p>Keep in mind I was a high school student at the time, and didn&#8217;t really have any idea of the massive potential of the theme industry at the time. I know it&#8217;s hard to imagine now, but I doubt many other people did at the time either. Within the next couple years it just exploded. People really liked free WordPress themes.</p>\n<p><strong>What was it like to attend your first WordCamp?</strong></p>\n<p><a href=\"http://i2.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/WPDCMeetup.jpg\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-7515\" alt=\"WordPress DC Meetup\" src=\"http://i0.wp.com/www.wptavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/WPDCMeetup.jpg?resize=192%2C253\" /></a>Well to answer that question, I’d like to direct readers to a <a title=\"http://www.wptavern.com/leland-tells-us-whats-cooking-in-the-themelab\" href=\"http://www.wptavern.com/leland-tells-us-whats-cooking-in-the-themelab\">previous WPTavern post published in May of 2010</a> when you video interviewed me at WordCamp Raleigh.</p>\n<p>“Nervous but excited” pretty much sums it up. To be able to meet in person some of the people I interacted with on Twitter was great.</p>\n<p>Since then I attended the following year’s WordCamp Raleigh, and have since been on a WordCamp drought. Hopefully I’ll have an opportunity to attend some nearby WordCamps in the future.</p>\n<p>Although not technically a WordCamp, I do enjoy the monthly <a title=\"http://www.meetup.com/wordpressdc/\" href=\"http://www.meetup.com/wordpressdc/\">WordPress DC meetups</a> to network with some of the local members of the WordPress community.</p>\n<p><strong>Any pet peeves you still have regarding WordPress Themes?</strong></p>\n<p>Let’s see, where do I begin…</p>\n<p>Chill on the theme options. And stop making the UI’s clash so much. Use theme options only when you absolutely need them, and if you do, make them blend in. I think Devin Price’s <a title=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/options-framework/\" href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/options-framework/\">Options Framework</a> does a good job of this.</p>\n<p>Chill with the “SEO,” and stop replicating every single option that free plugins (like Yoast’s WordPress SEO) already do. Data like that should be stored in a plugin anyway.</p>\n<p>Speaking of data that should be stored in plugins:<em> chill with the shortcodes, chill with the custom post types, and chill with the custom taxonomies built directly into the theme’s functions.php file</em>. It makes it a huge pain when the user wants to switch themes. Contrary to popular belief, users may not want to use the same theme forever.</p>\n<p>Finally, the biggest pet peeve of all is that all my previously mentioned pet peeves are perpetuated by demand in the commercial WordPress theme market. Just take a look at the top sellers of any of the popular theme marketplaces. Their themes almost always include &#8220;features&#8221; such as SEO optimization, tons of shortcodes, etc. But those themes have sold thousands of times over. Clearly, it&#8217;s what the people want. Can&#8217;t really blame those theme authors too much for supplying the demand.&#8221;</p>\n<p>Also, sliders suck.</p>\n<p><strong>Is there anything you’d like to say to the general WordPress Community?</strong></p>\n<p>Hopefully people don’t get the wrong idea from my theme rant. Being a theme developer myself, I’m a little biased, and I hate to see bad development practices perpetuated.</p>\n<p>I love the WordPress community as a whole. I don’t think anyone could’ve imagined 10 years ago how much the community has grown today. I’m just looking forward to see what happens in the next 10.</p>\n<img src=\"http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/WordpressTavern/~4/vAbBBlK39ZY\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"

More theme developers should start doing a Schema.org API and if they do, we should make sure they&#8217;re interoperable.</p>\n<p>In short: Genesis 2.0 added a Schema.org API, with hooks like:</p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"line-height: 13px;\">genesis_attr_entry<br />\n</span></li>\n<li>genesis_attr_entry-title</li>\n<li>genesis_attr_entry-content</li>\n</ul>\n<p>These hooks are very consistently named, which is very important. There&#8217;s one &#8220;issue&#8221; though: they&#8217;re namespaced. They all start with &#8220;genesis_&#8221;, which is a good practice by the Genesis community and one most theme authors use. But let&#8217;s think about this from a plugin authors perspective: if I add support for Genesis Schema.org API and say WooThemes decides to adopt it as well but prefixes it with &#8220;woo_&#8221;. And then 10 other theme vendors do the same thing. Instead of having one line of code that filters a specific hook&#8217;s output, I have 10 add_filter lines to add, and I need to do that for <em>every</em> change.</p>\n<p>The same is true with some other hooks that loads of us plugin developers need but WordPress core refuses to add. I&#8217;ve had <a href=\"http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/12563\">lengthy discussions</a> about the need for a body_open hook in core, but the core team has all sorts of reasons not to want that. I see why, but that doesn&#8217;t stop us, as the WordPress community, with coming up with our own standards for hooks and standardizing them in a proper fashion.</p>\n<h2>WordPress theme hook standardisation board</h2>\n<p>I think we should be able to get the big theme guys together and come up with a proper standard for these things and it wouldn&#8217;t even need much work.

For other hooks it might be a bit more work, what I&#8217;d call &#8220;body_open&#8221; is in Genesis as &#8220;genesis_before&#8221;, which is semantically a bit weird in my opinion, but we should discuss.</p>\n<p>I&#8217;d love to come up with a proper standard for these things.

Now you might think that&#8217;s not very news worthy, but it was his first post since February 25th.

And that&#8217;s where the problem lay, as he discloses in his post:</p>\n<blockquote><p>Truth is, sometimes, even someone as outspoken as me just doesn’t have anything really all that pertinent to write about on a blog like this one, and though the discipline to carry on writing “content” day after day anyway is admirable in many ways, I found the exercise pretty much mired in futility.</p></blockquote>\n<p>I know how that feels. I write tutorial type posts all the time, as I do a lot of actual WordPress work and have inspiration for them, but I don&#8217;t write about SEO as often as I used to. The reason is simple: I&#8217;d be writing &#8220;content&#8221;. I&#8217;d be writing for the sake of writing. I&#8217;d be writing because I have loads of readers that want to read and it makes me feel good. To quote Olivier once more, because it&#8217;s too good of a quote to not repeat a 1000 times:</p>\n<blockquote><p>You want to feel important, go do something important, something that actually matters &#8230;.. Do <em>something</em>. But for fuck’s sake, stop filling empty space with “content.”</p></blockquote>\n<p>I like the idea of content marketing (though I hate the term <em>almost</em> as much as I hate the term &#8220;inbound marketing&#8221;, but that&#8217;s another story). But that type of marketing only works when you have an <em>actual</em> story to tell. Not made up bullshit. A real story with real life experiences and insights. To have those real life experiences, you have to do <em>work</em>. No-one can just &#8220;content market&#8221; his way through life.</p>\n<p>So, before you start blogging about SEO, <em>do</em> some real SEO first. Make sure you <em>know</em> what you&#8217;re writing about. It&#8217;d really help a lot if people in SEO (and basically every other aspect of online marketing) would <em></em>practice <em>before</em> they preached. About 95% of the blog posts I see now copy ideas from 5 other sites and call it content. Or they&#8217;ll ask 5 UK SEO&#8217;s for an opinion about X, because they&#8217;re too bloody lazy and/or ignorant to do any real research themselves and call it &#8220;Practical Tips for Modern SEO From the Best Minds in Europe&#8221;<a href=\"http://blog.hubspot.com/seo-experts-from-europe-tips\"></a>. I hate this new &#8220;one question interview&#8221; type of post. Do some fucking work and add some beef, or do a <em>real</em> interview (and learn to separate a country from a continent).</p>\n<p>That&#8217;s the real challenge of content marketing: to tell a story about you or your product that resonates with me, provides me with value <em>and</em> makes me want to become your customer. To be able to tell that story, you or your product should have solved more than a few people&#8217;s problems first. You can content market all day long, when the product you sell is shit, it won&#8217;t help you much will it? You have to <em>work on that product</em>.</p>\n<p>In SEO, the real experts are the people who can honestly say: this worked, that didn&#8217;t. Matt said X, but Y was the truth. I tried this, and burned a site, I tried that and the site dropped. Now I&#8217;m not saying you should burn your clients sites, but I <em>am</em> saying, instead of writing 5 or 10 crappy blog posts, do some research for yourself, write some code. Try something new, and then write a <em>real</em> good blog post. In fact, I&#8217;d rather read about 10 of your failings then about that one &#8220;success&#8221;.</p>\n<p>Olivier probably ran into this issue. You can&#8217;t keep hitting repeat and rewrite that same story all the time without getting burned out. You have to do real work and then, when all is well, every once in a while you&#8217;ll have inspiration for a really good post, you&#8217;ll have a new idea.</p>\n<p>If you do have that new idea, write that post and please do <a href=\"http://twitter.com/yoast\">share it with me on Twitter</a>, but, please, spare me your &#8220;content&#8221;.</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://yoast.com/challenge-content-marketing/\">You can&#8217;t content-market your way through life</a> is a post by <a rel=\"author\" href=\"http://yoast.com/author/joost/\">Joost de Valk</a> on <a href=\"http://yoast.com\">Yoast - Tweaking Websites</a>. \n\nA good WordPress blog needs good hosting, you don\'t want your blog to be slow, or, even worse, down, do you?

I hate this new &#8220;one question interview&#8221; type of post. Do some fucking work and add some beef, or do a <em>real</em> interview (and learn to separate a country from a continent).</p>\n<p>That&#8217;s the real challenge of content marketing: to tell a story about you or your product that resonates with me, provides me with value <em>and</em> makes me want to become your customer. To be able to tell that story, you or your product should have solved more than a few people&#8217;s problems first. You can content market all day long, when the product you sell is shit, it won&#8217;t help you much will it? You have to <em>work on that product</em>.</p>\n<p>In SEO, the real experts are the people who can honestly say: this worked, that didn&#8217;t. Matt said X, but Y was the truth. I tried this, and burned a site, I tried that and the site dropped. Now I&#8217;m not saying you should burn your clients sites, but I <em>am</em> saying, instead of writing 5 or 10 crappy blog posts, do some research for yourself, write some code. Try something new, and then write a <em>real</em> good blog post. In fact, I&#8217;d rather read about 10 of your failings then about that one &#8220;success&#8221;.</p>\n<p>Olivier probably ran into this issue. You can&#8217;t keep hitting repeat and rewrite that same story all the time without getting burned out. You have to do real work and then, when all is well, every once in a while you&#8217;ll have inspiration for a really good post, you&#8217;ll have a new idea.</p>\n<p>If you do have that new idea, write that post and please do <a href=\"http://twitter.com/yoast\">share it with me on Twitter</a>, but, please, spare me your &#8220;content&#8221;.</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://yoast.com/challenge-content-marketing/\">You can&#8217;t content-market your way through life</a> is a post by <a rel=\"author\" href=\"http://yoast.com/author/joost/\">Joost de Valk</a> on <a href=\"http://yoast.com\">Yoast - Tweaking Websites</a>. \n\nA good WordPress blog needs good hosting, you don\'t want your blog to be slow, or, even worse, down, do you?

I&#8217;ve always said and will continue to say that affiliate links should be redirected through a redirect script, but when we tried to help a client by linking to a proper explanation and example script, we couldn&#8217;t find one. So, in true Yoast style, I wrote a script and decided to write this article that outlines exactly how and why to use it.</p>\n<h2>Why should I cloak my affiliate links?</h2>\n<p>If you search online for it, there are tons of reasons for people to redirect their affiliate links. The &#8220;historical&#8221; reason for cloaking affiliate links is hiding that you&#8217;re an affiliate for the search engines. Now I&#8217;m not one to think the search engines are stupid enough to be fooled by an easy script like the one I&#8217;m providing below, but there are more reasons. The funny thing is that it&#8217;s called cloaking affiliate links because of that history, but I digress. Let me give you the three reasons why I do it and why I think every affiliate should be cloaking their affiliate links:</p>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"line-height: 13px;\"><strong>Ease of management</strong><br />\nYou sometimes have to change your affiliate links. If you have to change them in more than one place, it&#8217;s bound to be a painful exercise, so you want to centralize management.</span></li>\n<li><strong>Prevent leaking PageRank to advertisers</strong><br />\nWhile sometimes you might want to &#8220;hide&#8221; for a search engine that you&#8217;re an affiliate, for  me the reasoning is actually the other way around. Affiliate links are ads, and those <a href=\"http://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/answer.py?answer=96569\">should be nofollowed</a> or otherwise prevented from leaking PageRank to the advertiser. Instead of nofollowing each and every link, which is painful and you&#8217;re bound to forget at some point, why not make sure search engines can&#8217;t follow the link at all?</li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;Clean&#8221; links</strong><br />\nIt might be obvious when you&#8217;re linking to Amazon that the link points to Amazon, but when I link to say, Genesis, using my affiliate link, the link would point to shareasale.com, which in turn would redirect to Genesis. So the URL of the link would be ugly and wouldn&#8217;t tell you where you&#8217;re going to. Instead, my &#8220;clean&#8221;, cloaked version of that affiliate link reads:http://yoast.com/out/genesis/That is a lot more telling about the destination isn&#8217;t it? I think it&#8217;s more user friendly.</li>\n</ol>\n<h2>Cloaking affiliate links, the how to</h2>\n<p>The basic process of cloaking affiliate links is simple:</p>\n<ol>\n<li>Create a folder from where you&#8217;ll serve your redirects, I use <em>/out/</em>.</li>\n<li>Block the <em>/out/</em> folder in your domains <em>robots.txt</em> file by adding:\n<pre>Disallow: /out/</pre>\n</li>\n<li>Use a script in your redirect folder to redirect to your affiliate URLs.</li>\n</ol>\n<p>Step 2 makes sure search engines won&#8217;t follow the redirects, but we&#8217;ll add some extra safety with our script. Step 3 could be as easy as writing each redirect in your redirect directory&#8217;s <em>.htaccess</em> file manually. I personally prefer something that&#8217;s a bit easier to manage, which is why I&#8217;m giving you a little redirect script I wrote below. As a bonus, this should be easier to get working on NGINX too.</p>\n<h2>Affiliate link redirect script</h2>\n<p>This script consists of three parts. The <em>index.php</em> file is the file that handles the actual redirects, it does a 302 redirect and sends an <a href=\"http://yoast.com/x-robots-tag-play/\">X-Robots-Tag header</a> along, which makes sure the search engines that obey those headers aren&#8217;t allowed to index or follow the URL, should you forget the robots.txt exclusion.</p>\n<p>The <em>redirects.txt</em> file is a comma separated file with a very simple format:</p>\n<p>name,destination-url</p>\n<p>For instance:</p>\n<p>yoast,http://yoast.com</p>\n<p>It should always have the first line:</p>\n<p>default,http://example.com</p>\n<p>Where you can change example.com to your domain. This will make sure that people who try to redirect to non-existing redirects get redirected to your homepage.</p>\n<p>If you install these two files, the script will already work. With the above setup, going to /out/?id=yoast on your server would redirect you to http://yoast.com.</p>\n<p>Now I&#8217;m a bit of a URL freak and I actually like my URLs even cleaner than that, so there&#8217;s a bit of <em>.htaccess</em> involved as well. It&#8217;s only 5 lines and basically makes sure that you can link to /out/yoast and that would redirect you as well. This has the added bonus of preventing people from opening your redirects.txt file, so they can&#8217;t check out all your redirects.</p>\n<p>Neat huh?

VPS.net is fast, affordable, provides good support, and I continue to recommend them.</p>\n<p>But there are features of Synthesis that I realized I could no longer live without.</p>\n<h2>Optimized WordPress Performance</h2>\n<p>First, I don&#8217;t want to do my own Linux optimization anymore. Now I won&#8217;t have to.</p>\n<p>The Synthesis team developed its Linux server stack specifically to handle high traffic loads on WordPress websites. They have spent the last several years tweaking and perfecting this setup to provide the outstanding performance, reliability, and security that Synthesis does today.</p>\n<p>Simply put, the Synthesis team knows WordPress and they know server performance. I wanted to align with a team that understands WordPress performance better than I do. Now I have.</p>\n<h2>Theme Support</h2>\n<p>The second reason for the switch is that Synthesis, as part of Copyblogger, can simultaneously support my hosting <em>and </em>my theme.</p>\n<p>Yoast.com runs on the Genesis Framework, developed by Copyblogger&#8217;s <a href=\"http://yoast.com/out/studiopress/\" target=\"_blank\">StudioPress</a> design team. Yes, I could host Yoast.com anywhere and still have access to StudioPress support, but no other hosting platform is specifically tuned for Genesis. This further optimizes performance and security, and it makes updates a breeze.</p>\n<p>Plus, the Synthesis support staff is proactive about troubleshooting and quickly fixing issues specific to Genesis. A support question that might have taken two or three tickets to answer previously now will take just one because of the Synthesis/Genesis integration.</p>\n<h2>Cutting Edge Value</h2>\n<p>Copyblogger Media hosts its own business websites on regular plans from Synthesis. Beyond performance, Synthesis was designed to support the operational needs of the site owner versus that of the hosting company, and thus provides a few features that are unique among hosting providers.</p>\n<h3><strong>Operations</strong></h3>\n<p>First, Synthesis provides their customers with an uptime checker called <a href=\"http://yoast.com/out/site-sensor/\" target=\"_blank\">Site Sensor</a>.</p>\n<p>Beyond normal uptime checks, it can actually perform WordPress-specific checks which ensure RSS feeds and sitemaps are current. A website with broken SEO and content distribution mechanics might as well be down. The sitemap checker even supports the indexed sitemaps produced by our own <a href=\"http://yoast.com/wordpress/seo/\" target=\"_blank\">WordPress SEO</a> plugin, I worked with the Synthesis team to add that functionality.</p>\n<p>Second, Synthesis has backups down to a science.</p>\n<p>Synthesis already backs up my server on a nightly basis and ships it across the U.S. to a second data center. They also make local WordPress-specific backups that make it easy for their support staff to replace plugins, WP options settings, and more at a moment&#8217;s notice. Beyond this, they provide a database snapshot tool that I can use to back up my database before plugin and WP upgrades.</p>\n<p>Additionally, they are soon releasing a feature called Personal Backups for S3 that will allow me to send a backup to my own S3 bucket at Amazon. Unlike normal backup plugins, this service is actually driven by robust server-side processes and is not dependent on PHP.</p>\n<h3><strong>Site Speed</strong></h3>\n<p>Finally, I switched to Synthesis because I trust their technical aptitude and respect their forward-thinking mindset.</p>\n<p>For example, some of you may have heard about <a href=\"http://www.chromium.org/spdy/spdy-whitepaper\" target=\"_blank\">SPDY</a>, Google&#8217;s initiative to speed up the web by improving HTTP and TCP. I certainly have, and it is a feature I wanted implemented on our HTTPS forums and checkout pages.</p>\n<p>With this move to Synthesis, I&#8217;ll have it.</p>\n<p>SPDY requires server-side and browser support. (For a list of compatible web browsers, <a href=\"http://caniuse.com/spdy\" target=\"_blank\">click here</a>.) Synthesis is one of the first WordPress-only hosts to offer SPDY compatibility for qualified sites, having already <a href=\"http://yoast.com/out/synthesis-spdy/\" target=\"_blank\">tested it on a few of their own most valuable properties</a>.</p>\n<p>This is just the latest example of Synthesis consistently evolving to provide more value for its customers&#8217; hosting dollar.</p>\n<h2>A True Partner</h2>\n<p>In Synthesis, I don&#8217;t see a hosting provider. I see a hosting partner. This is what I needed as Yoast.com continues to grow and evolve.</p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll now have more time to spend doing what I love &#8212; writing plugins, reviewing websites, even <a href=\"http://yoast.com/on-focus-and-how-were-slowly-changing-our-business-model/\" target=\"_blank\">writing Genesis child themes</a> &#8212; while the Synthesis team will make sure that the site is up and ready to take advantage of the next development in WordPress hosting.</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://yoast.com/synthesis-managed-wordpress-hosting/\">Why I Switched to Copyblogger&#8217;s Synthesis Managed WordPress Hosting</a> is a post by <a rel=\"author\" href=\"http://yoast.com/author/joost/\">Joost de Valk</a> on <a href=\"http://yoast.com\">Yoast - Tweaking Websites</a>. \n\nA good WordPress blog needs good hosting, you don\'t want your blog to be slow, or, even worse, down, do you?

The sitemap checker even supports the indexed sitemaps produced by our own <a href=\"http://yoast.com/wordpress/seo/\" target=\"_blank\">WordPress SEO</a> plugin, I worked with the Synthesis team to add that functionality.</p>\n<p>Second, Synthesis has backups down to a science.</p>\n<p>Synthesis already backs up my server on a nightly basis and ships it across the U.S. to a second data center. They also make local WordPress-specific backups that make it easy for their support staff to replace plugins, WP options settings, and more at a moment&#8217;s notice. Beyond this, they provide a database snapshot tool that I can use to back up my database before plugin and WP upgrades.</p>\n<p>Additionally, they are soon releasing a feature called Personal Backups for S3 that will allow me to send a backup to my own S3 bucket at Amazon. Unlike normal backup plugins, this service is actually driven by robust server-side processes and is not dependent on PHP.</p>\n<h3><strong>Site Speed</strong></h3>\n<p>Finally, I switched to Synthesis because I trust their technical aptitude and respect their forward-thinking mindset.</p>\n<p>For example, some of you may have heard about <a href=\"http://www.chromium.org/spdy/spdy-whitepaper\" target=\"_blank\">SPDY</a>, Google&#8217;s initiative to speed up the web by improving HTTP and TCP. I certainly have, and it is a feature I wanted implemented on our HTTPS forums and checkout pages.</p>\n<p>With this move to Synthesis, I&#8217;ll have it.</p>\n<p>SPDY requires server-side and browser support. (For a list of compatible web browsers, <a href=\"http://caniuse.com/spdy\" target=\"_blank\">click here</a>.) Synthesis is one of the first WordPress-only hosts to offer SPDY compatibility for qualified sites, having already <a href=\"http://yoast.com/out/synthesis-spdy/\" target=\"_blank\">tested it on a few of their own most valuable properties</a>.</p>\n<p>This is just the latest example of Synthesis consistently evolving to provide more value for its customers&#8217; hosting dollar.</p>\n<h2>A True Partner</h2>\n<p>In Synthesis, I don&#8217;t see a hosting provider. I see a hosting partner. This is what I needed as Yoast.com continues to grow and evolve.</p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll now have more time to spend doing what I love &#8212; writing plugins, reviewing websites, even <a href=\"http://yoast.com/on-focus-and-how-were-slowly-changing-our-business-model/\" target=\"_blank\">writing Genesis child themes</a> &#8212; while the Synthesis team will make sure that the site is up and ready to take advantage of the next development in WordPress hosting.</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://yoast.com/synthesis-managed-wordpress-hosting/\">Why I Switched to Copyblogger&#8217;s Synthesis Managed WordPress Hosting</a> is a post by <a rel=\"author\" href=\"http://yoast.com/author/joost/\">Joost de Valk</a> on <a href=\"http://yoast.com\">Yoast - Tweaking Websites</a>. \n\nA good WordPress blog needs good hosting, you don\'t want your blog to be slow, or, even worse, down, do you?

Turns out the client didn&#8217;t handle scheduled downtime correctly, causing problems with Google. While this article covers some rather basic technical SEO the <a href=\"#varnish\">last bit</a> might be interesting for more advanced users. The message from Google Webmaster Tools read like this:</p>\n<blockquote><p>Over the last 24 hours, Googlebot encountered 41 errors while attempting to access your robots.txt. To ensure that we didn&#8217;t crawl any pages listed in that file, we postponed our crawl. Your site&#8217;s overall robots.txt error rate is 7.0%</p></blockquote>\n<h2>HTTP status codes and search engines</h2>\n<p>A search engine constantly verifies whether content it&#8217;s linking to stille exist and hasn&#8217;t changed.  It verifies two things:</p>\n<ol>\n<li>is the content still being served with the correct HTTP status code (HTTP 200);</li>\n<li>is it still the same content.</li>\n</ol>\n<p>An HTTP 200 status code means: all is well, here is the content you asked for. It is the <em>only </em>correct status code for content. If content has moved, you can redirect it, either permanently, with an HTTP 301 header, or temporarily, with an HTTP 302 or 307 header.</p>\n<p>If your server gives <em>any</em> other HTTP status header, it means the search engine can no longer find the content. If you server gives a 200 HTTP status code, but the page is in fact an error and says something like &#8220;File not found&#8221; or has very little content, Google will classify it as a <a href=\"http://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&amp;answer=181708\">soft 404</a> in Google Webmaster Tools.</p>\n<p>There is only one proper way of telling the search engine that you&#8217;re doing site maintenance:</p>\n<h2>How server downtime works for search engines</h2>\n<p>If, during a crawl, a search engine finds that some content no longer exists, ie. it gives a 404 HTTP status, it will usually remove that content from the search results until it can come back and verify that it&#8217;s there again. If this happens often, it&#8217;ll take longer and longer for the content to come back in the search results.</p>\n<p>What you should be doing is giving a 503 HTTP status code. This is the definition of the 503 status code from <a href=\"http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html\">the RFC that defines these status codes</a>:</p>\n<blockquote><p>The server is currently unable to handle the request due to a temporary overloading or maintenance of the server. The implication is that this is a temporary condition which will be alleviated after some delay. If known, the length of the delay MAY be indicated in a Retry-After header. If no Retry-After is given, the client SHOULD handle the response as it would for a 500 response.</p></blockquote>\n<p>So, you have to send a 503 status code <em>in combination with</em> a Retry-After header. Basically you&#8217;re saying: hang on, we&#8217;re doing some maintenance, please come back in X minutes. That sounds a lot better than what a 404 error says: &#8220;Not Found&#8221;. A 404 literally means that the server can&#8217;t find anything to return for the URL that was given.</p>\n<h2>How do I send a 503 header?</h2>\n<p>In PHP the code for a 503 would be like this:</p>\n<pre class=\"brush: php; title: ; notranslate\">$protocol = &quot;HTTP/1.0&quot;;\nif ( &quot;HTTP/1.1&quot; == $_SERVER[&quot;SERVER_PROTOCOL&quot;] )\n  $protocol = &quot;HTTP/1.1&quot;;\nheader( &quot;$protocol 503 Service Unavailable&quot;, true, 503 );\nheader( &quot;Retry-After: 3600&quot; );</pre>\n<p>The delay time, 3600 in the above example, is given in seconds, so 3600 corresponds to 60 minutes. You can also specify the exact time when the visitor should come back, by sending a GMT date instead of the number of seconds. This would result in something like this:</p>\n<pre class=\"brush: php; title: ; notranslate\">header( &quot;Retry-After: Fri, 19 Mar 2013 12:00:00 GMT&quot; );</pre>\n<p>Use that with caution though, setting it to a wrong date might give unexpected results!</p>\n<h2>Our site is never down, we&#8217;re on WordPress</h2>\n<p>Nonsense. Every time you upgrade your core WordPress install, or when you&#8217;re updating plugins, WordPress will give a maintenance page. The default page sends out a proper 503 header. You can replace the default error page with a <em>maintenance.php</em> file in your <em>wp-content</em> folder, but if you do, you <em>have</em> to make sure that file sends out the proper 503 headers too. You can copy the code from the <a href=\"http://queryposts.com/function/wp_maintenance/\"><code>wp_maintenance()</code></a> function.</p>\n<p>If your database is down, WordPress actually sends an internal server error, using the <a href=\"http://queryposts.com/function/dead_db/\"><code>dead_db()</code></a> function. If you&#8217;re doing planned maintenance on your database, therefore, you&#8217;ll need to set up a custom database error message page, <em>db-error.php</em> in your <em>wp-content</em> folder that sends a proper 503 header.</p>\n<h2 id=\"varnish\">Beware caches!</h2>\n<p>So where did our client go wrong?</p>\n<p>Funnily enough, our client <em>had</em> properly configured 503 headers on their server. There was an issue though: they use a <a href=\"https://www.varnish-cache.org/\">Varnish cache</a> and that Varnish didn&#8217;t transfer the 503 status code correctly, it replaced it with a &#8220;general&#8221; HTTP 500 status, causing Google to send out that error email.

Turns out the client didn&#8217;t handle scheduled downtime correctly, causing problems with Google. While this article covers some rather basic technical SEO the <a href=\"#varnish\">last bit</a> might be interesting for more advanced users. The message from Google Webmaster Tools read like this:</p>\n<blockquote><p>Over the last 24 hours, Googlebot encountered 41 errors while attempting to access your robots.txt. To ensure that we didn&#8217;t crawl any pages listed in that file, we postponed our crawl. Your site&#8217;s overall robots.txt error rate is 7.0%</p></blockquote>\n<h2>HTTP status codes and search engines</h2>\n<p>A search engine constantly verifies whether content it&#8217;s linking to stille exist and hasn&#8217;t changed.  It verifies two things:</p>\n<ol>\n<li>is the content still being served with the correct HTTP status code (HTTP 200);</li>\n<li>is it still the same content.</li>\n</ol>\n<p>An HTTP 200 status code means: all is well, here is the content you asked for. It is the <em>only </em>correct status code for content. If content has moved, you can redirect it, either permanently, with an HTTP 301 header, or temporarily, with an HTTP 302 or 307 header.</p>\n<p>If your server gives <em>any</em> other HTTP status header, it means the search engine can no longer find the content. If you server gives a 200 HTTP status code, but the page is in fact an error and says something like &#8220;File not found&#8221; or has very little content, Google will classify it as a <a href=\"http://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&amp;answer=181708\">soft 404</a> in Google Webmaster Tools.</p>\n<p>There is only one proper way of telling the search engine that you&#8217;re doing site maintenance:</p>\n<h2>How server downtime works for search engines</h2>\n<p>If, during a crawl, a search engine finds that some content no longer exists, ie. it gives a 404 HTTP status, it will usually remove that content from the search results until it can come back and verify that it&#8217;s there again. If this happens often, it&#8217;ll take longer and longer for the content to come back in the search results.</p>\n<p>What you should be doing is giving a 503 HTTP status code. This is the definition of the 503 status code from <a href=\"http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html\">the RFC that defines these status codes</a>:</p>\n<blockquote><p>The server is currently unable to handle the request due to a temporary overloading or maintenance of the server. The implication is that this is a temporary condition which will be alleviated after some delay. If known, the length of the delay MAY be indicated in a Retry-After header. If no Retry-After is given, the client SHOULD handle the response as it would for a 500 response.</p></blockquote>\n<p>So, you have to send a 503 status code <em>in combination with</em> a Retry-After header. Basically you&#8217;re saying: hang on, we&#8217;re doing some maintenance, please come back in X minutes. That sounds a lot better than what a 404 error says: &#8220;Not Found&#8221;. A 404 literally means that the server can&#8217;t find anything to return for the URL that was given.</p>\n<h2>How do I send a 503 header?</h2>\n<p>In PHP the code for a 503 would be like this:</p>\n<pre class=\"brush: php; title: ; notranslate\">$protocol = &quot;HTTP/1.0&quot;;\nif ( &quot;HTTP/1.1&quot; == $_SERVER[&quot;SERVER_PROTOCOL&quot;] )\n  $protocol = &quot;HTTP/1.1&quot;;\nheader( &quot;$protocol 503 Service Unavailable&quot;, true, 503 );\nheader( &quot;Retry-After: 3600&quot; );</pre>\n<p>The delay time, 3600 in the above example, is given in seconds, so 3600 corresponds to 60 minutes. You can also specify the exact time when the visitor should come back, by sending a GMT date instead of the number of seconds. This would result in something like this:</p>\n<pre class=\"brush: php; title: ; notranslate\">header( &quot;Retry-After: Fri, 19 Mar 2013 12:00:00 GMT&quot; );</pre>\n<p>Use that with caution though, setting it to a wrong date might give unexpected results!</p>\n<h2>Our site is never down, we&#8217;re on WordPress</h2>\n<p>Nonsense. Every time you upgrade your core WordPress install, or when you&#8217;re updating plugins, WordPress will give a maintenance page. The default page sends out a proper 503 header. You can replace the default error page with a <em>maintenance.php</em> file in your <em>wp-content</em> folder, but if you do, you <em>have</em> to make sure that file sends out the proper 503 headers too. You can copy the code from the <a href=\"http://queryposts.com/function/wp_maintenance/\"><code>wp_maintenance()</code></a> function.</p>\n<p>If your database is down, WordPress actually sends an internal server error, using the <a href=\"http://queryposts.com/function/dead_db/\"><code>dead_db()</code></a> function. If you&#8217;re doing planned maintenance on your database, therefore, you&#8217;ll need to set up a custom database error message page, <em>db-error.php</em> in your <em>wp-content</em> folder that sends a proper 503 header.</p>\n<h2 id=\"varnish\">Beware caches!</h2>\n<p>So where did our client go wrong?</p>\n<p>Funnily enough, our client <em>had</em> properly configured 503 headers on their server. There was an issue though: they use a <a href=\"https://www.varnish-cache.org/\">Varnish cache</a> and that Varnish didn&#8217;t transfer the 503 status code correctly, it replaced it with a &#8220;general&#8221; HTTP 500 status, causing Google to send out that error email. I haven&#8217;t had a chance to test whether that is default Varnish behavior or something they broke, but it&#8217;s worth testing for your environment.</p>\n<h2>Pro tip: sending a 503 for your robots.txt</h2>\n<p>Per <a href=\"https://plus.google.com/+PierreFar/posts/Gas8vjZ5fmB\">this post</a> from Pierre Far of Google, if you send an HTTP 503 status code for your robots.txt, Google will halt all the crawling on your domain until it&#8217;s allowed to crawl the robots.txt again.
